“In Kailua, Piliāmoʻo’s photographs do more than document transformation. They help Hawaiians reconnect to ʻāina, land (literally: “that which feeds”), and kūpuna. Meanwhile, they remind those who live there that these places are layered with stories—with lives that came long before them and will continue long after. This is one of the functions of Hawaiian photography: to preserve what is threatened and to make visible the obligations and relations that bind people to place.”Read More

“SHIMA is the first iteration of a new exhibition series exploring Okinawan life in relation to Hawaiʻi, Uchinā, and the Moana.  Part 1 explores shima not only as an ʻisland’ or ‘village’ – but as a relational space and a psychic condition, being held by more than one place and time at once – as Okinawan identity in Hawaiʻi is shaped by plantation histories, U.S. militarization, community organizing and resistance, being local, and emergent conversations around Indigeneity.”  Read More

“A lesser-known creative expression, both artistic and philanthropic in nature, was the establishment of Uluhaimālama, the queen’s charitable garden. I would like readers to reconsider Uluhaimālama as an early example of public art, established in October 1894, and conceived by Queen Liliʻuokalani herself. ”
