Art as a way of expression and communication has always been present in the history of Easter Island<\/a>. In addition to the moai<\/strong><\/a>, the giant statues that have given the island fame and that are the unquestionable symbol of Rapa Nui, there are many other artistic representations that, while remaining in the background, form in themselves an extraordinary catalog of Rapanui art.<\/p>\n

The petroglyphs scattered throughout the island and that abound especially in Orongo<\/a>, the cave paintings that have been found in caves such as Ana Kai Tangata<\/a>, the wood-carved figures like the moai kava kava<\/a> or the curious symbols still to be deciphered from the RongoRongo tablets<\/a> are a good example of the creativity, talent and sensitivity present in the Rapanui people.<\/p>\n
