The Word from Black Sand

The MAP Exhibition is up at the Hawai'i Pacific University Art Gallery in Kaneohe. Maoli Art Pedagogy MAP is an exhibition that features Kanaka Maoli artists exploring the intersections of art, teaching and learning in Hawai’i and the world. The artists include Carl F.K. Pao, Meleanna Meyer, Al Lagunero, Harinani Orme, Kahi Ching and Pete Britos. With the metaphor of the MAP as a framework, the artists consider how Hawaiian art teaches, re-members, explores, proposes, suggests, excavates, challenges, honors and envisions the past, present and future. What is the place of Hawaiian art in our Hawai’i culture, in our personal lives, our community, and in our understanding of what has been, and what will become? The piko, the heiau, the human body and the ki`i image are powerful symbolic sites of engagement and contestation, that intersect as well with institutional and commercial culture. In this age of pop culture saturation, and cookie cutter aesthetics, how does Hawai’i and Hawaiian art function, and what is the role of the Maoli artist?
Here's a video story from Producer John Marsh for Hawai'i Pacific News:
