Internationally renowned artists from Tokyo, Toyomi Hoshina and Ritsuko Taho bring the interrelation of nature and culture to the forefront of art. Their work, often composed of organic matter such as leaves, plants, and soil, moves beyond the conventions of what is considered the " natural environment" to include the complexities of social environments.

MISSION

Intersections' mission is to develop and sustain a dynamic guest artist/scholar program that supports and enriches the curriculum of the UHM Department of Art and Art History and Hawaii's art community at-large. We are particularly interested in artists and scholars whose areas of expertise are not covered by existing faculty, or not sufficiently supported by the art community, in particular those who engage in work that does not readily translate into commercial application. The promotion of diversity and respect for difference is central to the way that we develop programming. We believe that exposure to diverse models of artistic activities and perspectives enhances critical-thinking and creative problem-solving. We aim to organize programming that explores the meaning and relevance of artistic practice as part of culture, and inspires our community to embrace art critically as both practitioner and audience.
