Clayton Amemiya:
I have been producing wood fired ceramics in Waiakea Uka for over 30 years.  The vast majority of my firings have been with Ohia, due to it's availability, but I have used a variety of firewood like lychee, keawe, eucalyptus and pine.  My kiln, an anagama (tunnel kiln), fires pots for approximately 100 hours using over two cords of wood and this long firing produces fly ash that coats parts of the finished pots in a natural glaze.

“25,000 years ago, on the banks of the Danube River in Austria, a woman looked down at her own body and constructed a model reflective of her perspective. This was the Venus of Willendorf.  Lumpy, faceless, almost monstrous, she stands in stark contrast to the male-oriented, refined, idealized female form omnipresent in Western art history.”

-Bella Freedman

This exhibition features women artists whom we've asked to share their perspectives through artistic expression. This exhibit is a collective voice of women for women.
