Wailoa Center’s ‘10x10x10’ installation art exhibit will be on display through May 27.
This is a unique exhibit focused on an installation art challenge. Ten artists were chosen, and they agreed to participate using only a predetermined list of 9 common materials, plus one material of their choosing.
They were originally given one year to complete their installation project, but due to COVID, it turned into two years. These artists include the team of Wendy Barske and Glorianne Garza, Leigh Critchlow, Kimberly Langston Hagan, Jeffery Kurash, Ethel Mann, Matt Politano, Bill Swartz, Peter Underwood, Jeff Walker and Echo Yarberry.
Each artist had to use cement, driftwood, aluminum foil, plywood, spray paint, window screen, joint compound, brown paper bags, and any kind of connectors (glue, screws, nails, Velcro etc.) and an “artist’s choice” of one specific material. Each artist or team will show their installation in one of the 10 assigned spaces in Wailoa’s upstairs Main Gallery.
The ‘10x10x10’ alumni groups from 2016, 2018, and 2019 will be occupying the Fountain Gallery and Education Lanai area with smaller installation versions using the same materials as the Main Gallery artists.
Wailoa Center is free and open to the public 9 a.m.- 4 p.m. Monday through Friday.
The center is closed on state holidays. For additional information please call 933-0416 or email wailoa@yahoo.com.
