This is the second year for the Kamehameha Printmakers exhibition at Printmakers. The artworks will be on exhibit from January 3 – 26th. The exhibition highlights a selection of outstanding examples of student creativity and innovation! The relief and screen-prints on view emphasize the young printmaker's Hawaiian identity. Their art is inspired by ‘Ike Kupuna, ‘Ōlelo No’eau, Hawaiian History, family legends and personal insights.
Students were asked to talk story with their Kupuna and create a story about an interaction a family member had with an `aumakua. Students then made a visual representation of this story through printmaking.
Open Jan 3rd through Jan 26th during studio hours (Tues – Sat 9 – 5) at 1142 Bethel St, Honolulu
