“The pieces in my collaboration are all very different but they all work together. ‘Tapestry’ is based off of an artwork that I did a few years ago, ‘Tools’ is a snapshot of some of my beater tools, and the third, ‘Kite,’ is a diagram and image of one of the traditional kites that I recreated a few years ago. They may all look a bit dispersed but the tools and tool design were used to make the Kapa in the kite pieces. You’ll see a lot of pattern overlap with not only the pattern on my beaters but also the patterns I use on both ‘Kite’ and ’Tapestry’. There’s a lot of interchange happening between the three designs and their angles: It’s a contemporary artwork for one, a functional utilitarian for another, and the tools that help make both of them for the third.”
