Background: Malu is a Samoan tattoo design representing female genitalia and takes the ethnoglasses a step further. To take this design and place it on glasses is to entirely take it out of context much like the Maori motif in Rock Glasses. The concept conveyed here is being blinded by sensuality and sexuality. Our veiws concerning sexuality are very much decided by the culture we are raised in.
