Ira Ono, founder of “The Trash Show: Hawaii Artists Recycle,” will be returning to jury the 30th anniversary edition of one of East Hawaii’s longest-running annual arts events. The show runs from October 5-26, beginning with a gala opening on Friday, October 5, from 5:30-7:30 p.m., followed by a special dance performance, “My Empty Body is Full of Stars,” by the Prince Dance Theatre company, starting at 7:30 in EHCC’s upstairs performance space, (the gallery will close at this time).
“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.
These responsive photographs are reminiscent of time and place, framing a perspective of people to the landscape they live within. This collection of work from individual artists impart insight of the social participation, conscious and unconscious, with place. Each image inquires how the human element develops or poses obstacles for the dissemination of culture and visceral knowledge of land, our collective home.

The time when the earth was hotly changed
