Title reference:
'More pictures
from Wai’anae'
shares a new
series of
photographs
taken over the
past 3 years by
Matthew Brandt
during his time
spent in Oahu,
Hawaii – furthering
the artists formal
and material
consideration of
the natural world.
Brandt's approach:
"...These printed
photographs were
rolled in dirt,
leaves, burlap and
lace, and buried
on a family farm
in the town of
Wai’anae. Over
time, the elements
of the Hawaiian
earth changed
these pictures.
Presented in
this exhibition
are remains
of this process."
Also featured:
A repeating palm
tree motif has been
hand-stenciled
onto the gallery
walls in a multi-color
layering process,
extending Brandt’s
exploration of
the Hawaiian
landscape in
a lived way.
