About
Artists

Two solo exhibits interpret the spatial potential of the gallery with installation projects. Maui artist Chenta Laury’s work synthesizes natural fibers into forms that relate to growth, adaptation, and transformation, as modeled by plants and as metaphor for her own life and identity. San Francisco artist Holly Wong creates installations of mixed media assemblages harnessing memory, myth, and unexpressed trauma in visual reconstruction. The exhibit will be open from 3pm - 7pm during the Maui ‘Ukulele Festival on Sunday, October 8.
