The work "Ioka"2004 from the series Ioka by Edith Amituanai relates to the idea "When working with the everyday, artist select from their living context". The work is a photographic portrait mid body shot of Ioka holding a cup of tea, showcasing chores and a normal life of pacific islander. Everyday objects are found within the background of the kitchen which shows a bottle of coke. The snapshot tells me Ioka is serving tea/coffee etc, an example of an common activity from the life of an pacific islander and a living context that I can relate to as well.
