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?

The Cleaner
The first painting of every year is significant.
It sets the tone, mood, style, and benchmark for the year.
The Cleaner was my first for 2024.
It’s a figurative painting of a woman with a broom.
She wears only a lavalava and a sei.
Inspirations.
1. I fell in love with a sculpture by Italian artist Ernesto Coter while eating in his kitchen at Santa Maria Rezzonico a few weeks earlier. The sculpture was sitting on the sideboard beside his dining table. He said it is a Samoan woman dancing. This painting is a response to the sculpture (Pic 5)
2. A new year inspires a fresh look at life, reassessment, and decluttering. It’s not the first time my first painting for a new year has included a broom. It’s about spring cleaning your life as a new year begins.
3. Spending time with my family gave me a fresh respect for two of my sisters who each successfully run their own cleaning businesses in Queensland. It’s more interesting and complex work than I expected, and what they do for their clients is admirable.
I wanted to honour cleaners so I painted gold behind her head to show she is iconic.
And she had a gold broom.
4. Samoans sweep everything regularly – the beach, the grass the house, and everything.
5. A woman with a broom is a timeless and common sight in the background of every culture and every age. I want to uplift and highlight this symbol.
As a goddess. With an iconic halo.
We have often been this person and often see this person. And they’re important and essential.
They get rid of crap and they make the world more beautiful.
Goddesses.
6. I painted a blue ocean type background because I was seeing a lot from the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference in Dubai, while painting. Many people I know were there representing island nations of the Pacific Ocean.
Selu by Tito Pritchard
This print by young artist and carver Tito Pritchard features a traditional Samoan hair comb which is carved from wood.
Daughters of the Waters
This print is from a series of three large paintings by Nikki Mariner, titled, ‘No Woman is an Island’.
Fa’asamoa by William Mauola
This print by William Mauola includes ceremonial items of Samoan culture displayed in a tanoa against the background of tatau patterns.
It includes a nifo oti, ulafala, to’oto’o, fue and an aute/a red hibiscus.
Women of the Woods
This print is from a series of three large paintings by Nikki Mariner, titled, ‘No Woman is an Island’.
Natural Woman
Craving nature, feeling anti-technology, craving authenticity, resenting clocks and calendars and dresscodes, imagining living off the land, channeling ancestors, craving trees and fruit, and fresh air.
Umu Feast by To’a Sāleilua
This print by To’a Sāleilua shows a steaming Samoan feast of pork, fish, breadfruit, taro and more, which are cooked using traditional methods.
Lady Fingers | Misiluki
- 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.
Pacific Blue Madonna
The original painting was exhibited and sold at the Regenerating Oceania Exhibition at the 13th Festival of Pacific Arts and Culture in Honolulu 6-16 June 2024.
This print is a deep statement about motherhood and the crucial role mothers have in sustaining society in Oceania.
Pisupo Pacific
This print features a favourite food in Samoa: Corned Beef or Pisupo.
Like artists for centuries, I teach myself about painting by doing my own versions of the great masters and modern icons.
Personally, I’ve never been attracted to the artwork by American artist Andy Warhol (1928-1987), but corned beef cans gave me the perfect opportunity to explore his work. Step into the experience of studying the minutiae of mundane objects and products.
It was interesting and it gave me a new appreciation.
Sisters of the Sun
This print is from a series of three large paintings by Nikki Mariner, titled, ‘No Woman is an Island’.
