UNDER THE SEA



The Issue

  There are many myths and legends related to the sea in Maori and Pasifika culture that people don’t know. They are important as they tell about the past and the creatures in them are often powerful symbols important to a particular culture. We want to make people aware of the importance of these myths and in particular the characters from the sea.
