Just to have something to riff off, I lifted this from the tutorial PDF.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
whakakapi, closing, completion, the sharing of food to whakanoa (lift restrictions \/ tapu) and demonstrates manaakitanga (host responsibility \/ support)<\/p>
H\u0101kari is a process for balancing, settling and replenishing oneself and one\u2019s community or whenua.<\/p>
It takes the form of a feast, which moves the powhiri proceedings from the formal to the informal, and through that movement cements future relationships.<\/p>
It is an opportunity for reciprocity and friendly rivalry to enhance the mana of the hosts and guests.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
My interpretation<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
H\u0101kari are usually thought of as “feasts”, and these feasts are imbued with significant meanings of rebalancing and reconciliation. The word can also apply to the wooden structure that food for such a feast was traditionally displayed upon. These feasts were held as a way to offer hospitality to others, and also to show mana. Sometimes the feast hosts competed with their guests to outdo each other. Although originally held to mark events, and as rituals, by the 19th century they increased in size enormously with food being displayed in huge piles. Although h\u0101kari have persisted to the present day, these are now typically held at the end of a hui (not longer being the sole reason to gather), and the menu have often become more healthy.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cBut at the same time, I immediately thought it\u2019s a good subject for me as an artist,\u201d said Ono. \u201cI wanted to share that feeling I had in my heart with the audience and invite them to participate.\u201d<\/p>\u2018\u201cProtect the Persecuted\u201d: Behind Yoko Ono\u2019s Impactful Refugee Art Project\u2019. The Guardian<\/em>, 21 June 2019, http:\/\/www.theguardian.com\/culture\/2019\/jun\/21\/protect-the-persecuted-behind-yoko-onos-impactful-refugee-art-project.<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

My initial idea was a “Grapefruit” or “Acorn” style invitation to carry out an action. I really wanted to have an environmental message in this, so I considered something like this:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
  1. Take a compass and go down to the ocean.<\/li>
  2. Look due South from the very edge of the water.<\/li>
  3. Consider Global Warming, and how the melting ice at the South Pole is directly linked to the ocean you are standing by<\/li><\/ol>\n\n\n\n
    Then I thought about another of Ono’s work:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    I decided to combine the two ideas. Instead of providing instructions, I would just provide a place to stand, but let people know they were facing South when they were standing there. I would let their imagination do the rest. I made a stencil:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    I initially though about applying the stencil to the seawall using biodegradable paint, but when I went down to the beach I had another idea. I wanted to put the footprints directly onto the sand, so that they would be ephemeral. I did not want to do this with paint – it felt like precisely the wrong medium – so instead I took some charcoal from my woodburner and ground it up. I found the effect to be quite striking.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    \"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n
    I then realised that standing in the footprints would destroy them. That felt right.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
    It was genuinely only then that I realised that I’d inadvertently created a “Dad joke”…<\/p>\n<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Another thing I\u2019ve always said is that a painting always has to be a painting. Everything must be able to return to its original state and return to being a painting. I think of them like a body with a deformity, or a body missing a leg, but then you put on a prosthetic leg to walk. I also like to think of my paintings like the parable of the prodigal son: whenever they want, they can return.<\/p>\u2018\u00c1ngela de La Cruz\u2019. Site-Specific Conversation<\/em>, http:\/\/site-specificconversation.com\/en\/angeladelacruz\/.

    “Postmodernism” – an app<\/h4>\n\n\n\n
    This app responds to speech, particularly the word “postmodernism”. You will need to give your web browser permission to use your microphone. If you click the app, it will play an audio clip of Hanne Lippard saying variations on “postmodernism”, and the app will react to that too (via your microphone hearing your speakers, for now). The audio clip is undoubtedly copyright Hanne Lippard, 2011.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
