Kumulipo is the Hawaiian chant of creation. It is a cosmogenic and a genealogical prayer chant that describes the formation of the universe, the beginning of life in our world, the birth of man, and its lineage from the gods.
This collection of works began from painting on unstretched canvas or paper, laid on uneven forest grounds or lava fields. Liquid paint, brushed in large strokes, streams down from the peaks and folds in the canvas, like water springs meandering from mountain crests to the ocean, generating forms of organic life and sea creatures against the background.
Acrylic paint on canvas or paper is the main medium in the Kumulipo collection.
