my lesson with filipe tohi

On tuesday me and the whole syndicate were in the hall at lunch waiting for filipe tohi. a famous tongan artist who uses the coconut mesocarp to weave things. he showed us how he made art inspired by his emotions. Like when he showed us this sculpture he made showing he was sad leaving tonga. Then in the lesson he showed us this peace of art he brought with him. He asked if we saw a fish then we did he flipped it upside down and asked if we saw a bird. I didn't but others did. After the lesson we were aloud to ask 5 questions first someone asked about his age he was 60. Then some other questions. At the end we got to touch his artwork then said goodbye and left.
