Angela Tiatia is a New Zealand-born artist of Sāmoan heritage who explores representations of gender, neo-colonialism, and the commodification of the body and place, often through the lenses of history and popular culture.

Angela Tiatia's lush new video, The Dark Current explores migration, femininity, and the intersection of digital and physical realms. The work captures the dark and chaotic feeling of the current moment while unraveling the artist's connection to her matrilineage and Sāmoan culture.

Faculty Exhibition Series Part 4
On view from March 8 -- April 7, 2024

Closing Reception

Date: April 7, 2024, Sunday, 2:00--4:00 PM

Location: Commons Gallery, University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa (UHM)

Artists

Shiori Abe, Cody Anderson, Ka-Ning Fong, Kainoa Gruspe, Hadley Nunes, and Atis Puampai.

Faculty Exhibition Series Part 4 is a platform showcasing the creativity of artist educators. While Ka-Ning Fong enlivens the traditional Renaissance-based painting practices through contemporary scenes uncovering the grit and humanity of urban Honolulu, Hadley Nunes finds a connection between early Modernism and the distorted spaces of virtual reality. Cody Anderson reimagines representational drawing as a conceptual practice, and Kainoa Gruspe uses non-traditional materials such as chewing gum, goatfish, wool, and turmeric as painting materials to explore diverse subjects including philosophy and quantum physics. Shiori Abe finds inspiration for her glass installation from the traditional practice of hula. Atis Puampi reframes Copernicus' theories through the use of modified cameras. All the artists acknowledge the influence of the past while looking to the future.
