An island of secrets. A girl on fire. An epic battle of the elements. The book that started it all…

Leila Folger escapes the stifling misery of life with her American grandmother and goes to Samoa searching to connect with her mother’s family. All her efforts to learn more about the mother she never knew are met with hostility. What really happened eighteen years ago when her father fled the island with his infant daughter? Why is everyone afraid to even talk about the woman he once loved? What is a ‘telesā’ and why does even the mention of her name strike such fear in everyone Leila meets? And why is Leila having vivid nightmares about a mother she can’t remember? Her quest for truth takes a thrilling turn when she meets Daniel Tahi, irresistibly compelling with his island-warrior tattoos, breath-taking jade eyes and golden smile. What is it in Daniel’s mysterious past that binds him and Leila so closely? When Leila discovers she is heir to a fiery birthright, she must choose between the Sisterhood and the boy she loves. Can they overcome all that divides them, even the very elements?

Women of the Woods

Author: Nikki Mariner
Highlights:

This print is from a series of three large paintings by Nikki Mariner, titled, ‘No Woman is an Island’.

☀️SISTERS OF THE SUN,
🌊DAUGHTERS OF THE WATERS,
🌳WOMEN OF THE WOODS
Representing Samoa at the 13th Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture in Hawaii in 2024, the theme of the exhibition was Regenerating Oceania.
From the artist: “I asked myself what are the defining elements of a tropical island?
And I came up with three:
•surrounded by ocean,
•lush green jungles and forests
• heat from the sun.
So I painted groups of women in these three themes – forest, ocean, sun.
Painting groups rather than an individual figure symbolizes the collectivism of Pacific cultures and acknowledges the tight social bonds as a superpower towards Regenerating Oceania.
Each piece uses colour, shapes, pattern, and texture to express the feeling of each element of a tropical island – life in Oceania.

Lady Fingers | Misiluki

Author: Nikki Mariner
Highlights:
  • I was staring at banana trees when I started painting this and deciding on a colour palette.

Yellows, greens and browns. Not colours I usually use but you can’t argue with nature’s beauty.

Then the title just seemed so obvious and perfect.

Misiluki is Samoan for Lady Finger bananas.
Lady Fingers. Five digits on a hand and five is the number of sisters I paint over and over again.

This bunch of five sisters are all grown up.
