ABOUT KANANI
I design spaces with the belief that effective and impactful design is malleable to each environment, people, purpose, and period. Therefore each project invites innovation, deep listening, and humility.
My curatorial concepts explore the changing cultural and social values in Hawai‘i, with emphasis on representation of ethnic minorities and underserved communities. I collaborate with contemporary artists, researchers, and cultural practitioners with intention to explore new narratives for old problems. Together, we approach the gallery as a space for diverse perspectives to seek ways to preserve and perpetuate humanity with a plurality of stories.
