What have I learnt about Ta Moko

It represents ones status, fame, wealth, and their past experiences. Thus making them important to their background and identity. back then in Maori societies people would be known just by looking at their Ta Moko. The way I see the Ta Moko as a sign of importance that tells people of ones experiences.

My design is an original design and i made it be my handing.

Whats the meaning of my Ta Moko?
I'm not quite sure of the outcome while making this. the thought that came into mind whilst creating this piece was kinda mixed up. I thought of making a face that went through wars, had control of some kingdom and a sense of keeping everyone safe
