ki'i (sculpture) (statues, <sculpture by subject type>, ... Visual and Verbal Communication (hierarchy name)) |
|
Note: Free-standing figures representing deities, most often carved in wood, found in Polynesia, particularly the Hawaiian Islands. The word 'tiki' is commonly used to refer broadly to these figures, but is technically incorrect. Use "Tiki" to refer to the popularization of Polynesian imagery in Post-WWII North American culture, and more specifically to copies of these figures. |

Additional Notes: |
|
Chinese (traditional) ..... 獨立式的神明像,主要見於夏威夷群島,以及玻里尼西亞,大多為木製;一般常以「提基」泛稱此類雕像,但並非正確用法,「提基」一詞應指北美洲文化中,第二次世界大戰後興盛的玻里尼西亞圖像風格,特指此類雕像的複製作品。 |
Dutch ..... Vrijstaande beelden die godheden representeren, meestal uit hout gesneden, en die men vindt in Polynesië, met name op de Hawaïaanse eilanden. Vaak gebruikt men het woord ���tiki' algemeen voor dit soort beelden, maar technisch is dat onjuist. Gebruik ���tiki' voor de kopieën van oorspronkelijk Polynesische beelden die na de Tweede Wereldoorlog in Noord-Amerika populair werden. |
German ..... Freistehende Figur, die eine Gottheit darstellt, meist aus Holz geschnitzt, in Polynesien vorkommend, besonders auf den Hawaianischen Inseln. Das Wort “Tiki” beschreibt diese Figuren im allgemeineren, aber es ist technisch nicht korrekt. “Tiki” wird verwendet, wenn man über die Bekanntwerdung der polynesischen bildenden Kunst in der Kultur Nord-Amerikas nach dem 2. Weltkrieg und besonders über Kopien dieser Figuren spricht. |
Portuguese ..... Figuras que representam divindades e que não são presas a nenhum suporte; ela são, em geral, esculpidas em madeira e encontradas na Polinésia, particularmente nas Ilhas Havaianas. A palavra 'tiki' é normalmente usada para se referir amplamente a essas figuras, mas é tecnicamente incorreta. Use "Tiki" para se referir à popularização de imagens polinésias na cultura norte americana pós-Segunda Guerra Mundial e, mais especificamente, às cópias dessas figuras. |
