Description
Key Features
The Art of Kula by Bloomsbury provides an in-depth examination of shell exchange traditions in Papua New Guinea's Massim region.
This book focuses on the carved and painted prow boards that decorate Kula voyager canoes, revealing their symbolic and artistic significance.
Campbell's analysis uncovers layers of encoded meaning within Kula designs, including distinctive colour associations and cultural symbolism.
The study documents how Kula traditions have expanded beyond island communities to mainland Papua New Guinea and Australia in contemporary times.
Published by Routledge through Bloomsbury, this work combines anthropological research with visual and decorative arts analysis.
