Two hundred years later \u2013 and almost 250 years after the original voyages that inspired them \u2013 Reihana employs 21st century digital technologies to recast and reconsider the wallpaper from a Pacific perspective. Enlivened with the sights and sounds of performance, cultural ceremonies and encounters, the expansive video panorama is populated by known and invented narratives of encounter amongst the British
