JULY 2024
“L&L: LOCAL & LIMINAL”
“The 2019 internet trend focused on man-made spaces built for the sole intent of transitioning from one space to another. Through the medium of photography, liminal spaces were documented for the intent of evoking a range of emotions, including nostalgia, comfort, fear, the surreal, and the uncanny. A group of local photographers embarked to explore these areas on the islands, aiming to unearth emotions associated with universality, distinction, personal nostalgia, and ideas subject to evolution due to our land’s social, political, economic, and environmental context.”
Artists: Atis Puampai, Harold Calventas, Eric Ordorica, Camden Ramirez, Gento Fujiki, Lala Myers, Nehu Evans, Ryan Lake, Alaina Degray.
Presented by the Friends of the Hawaiʻi State Art Museum.

- Capitol Modern - The Hawai‘i State Art Museum
The free, contemporary public art gallery of Hawai‘i has evolved and rebranded, debuting a new name, creative gathering spaces and calendar of events. Formerly called the Hawai‘i State Art Museum (HISAM), the name Capitol Modern is meant to better reflect its location in Honolulu’s historic Capitol District and the vibrant modern art experience people have come to love.
Capitol Modern is eager for the public to experience this next chapter in their evolution as the people’s museum, and the opportunity to reach diverse audiences in all Hawai‘i communities.
