The Volcano Art Center’s Hawaii Nei Invitational Exhibition is underway.
The annual event is on display from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily through Oct. 1 at the Volcano Art Center Gallery in Hawaii Volcanoes National Park.
The multimedia exhibition showcases seven outstanding artists who were selected from the Hawaii Nei 2022 Art Contest celebrating Hawaii Island’s native species held at Wailoa Art Center.
The artists include Kathy Sprinkle, Robert Peck, Saxony Charlot, Aleysia Ray Kaha, Janee Weddell-Hespenheide, Aly Kat, Jillian Marohnic and Dawn Sagar. They were challenged with exploring the theme of chiaroscuro, the use of strong contrast between light and dark, usually bold contrasts affecting a whole composition.
Visit the VAC Gallery to see how the artists expressed this theme through their art of Hawaii’s native species and landscapes found within HVNP.
Volcano Art Center is a nonprofit organization created in 1974 whose mission is to promote, develop and perpetuate the artistic, cultural and environmental heritage of Hawaii through arts and education. Visit www.volcanoartcenter.org for more information.
