DESCRIPTION:
A soft top is the foam surfboard most surfers learn on, and the palette of this diptych takes its cue from one. A broad pale arc spans both panels as a single wave form. On the left, a dark navy wedge carries strokes of coral and pale blue over a yellow wash; on the right, a
heavy navy zigzag cuts across the curve. Acrylic and spray paint on canvas. From the Wipeout Series, which translates the experience beneath the surface during a wipeout into abstract form.
Jackie Rey’s and the Donkey Mill Art Center are excited to partner in presenting rotating exhibitions featuring Hawaiʻi Island artists. This collaboration extends the Mill’s work beyond its campus, connecting artists with new audiences and creating more opportunities to discover and support the creative voices of our island community.
