About
Moanatoa
Mounier
Born in Tahiti, I grew up immersed in Polynesian culture and its ancestral traditions. Polynesian tattooing is not just a visual art — it's a sacred language that tells the story, rank and identity of the wearer.
Now based in Marseille, I travel the world to share this art: Hong Kong, London, Sydney, Berlin, Beijing, Rome, Bangkok, Hawaii, New York. Every convention is an encounter, every tattoo a transmission.
