Soundmoves

BFA alumni, Jeff Kurosaki along with Tara Pelletier will be presenting Soundmoves, a new project we developed this summer at Sculpture Space in Utica, NY. It is a performance piece with video, sculpture and music that tells the creation myth of the sun from a "shadow snake". It is told through a self-contained, two-person band and nomadic sculpture retro-fitted onto two hand trucks. Soundmoves will be at Plymouth Street between Adams and Main on Friday, September 28-30 at 6:30PM.

Reem Bassous and Maya Portner News

Reem Bassous and Maya Portner

Negotiating Dystopia is a collaborative installation between Reem Bassous and Maya Portner. The artists create an imagined city, loosely based on cities from their respective heritage. The exhibition space is transformed with a process that questions the boundaries of drawing, through direct application on the wall, layering, cutting and forming paper in relief.

These two artists find overlaps in their commitment to process, and have found artistic collaboration as a way of understanding and reconciling differences in each of their aesthetic, conceptual and cultural points-of-view.

There will be an opening reception on Thursday, September 27, from 6-9PM. Negotiating Dystopia runs from September 24 to October 11 at the Honolulu Museum of Art School, Mezzanine Gallery, 1111 Victoria Street, Honolulu, HI 96814.
