Gaea Bound
https://www.gaeabound.com/
Gaea Bound is a secret studio under a mango tree in the jungles of Hawaii. The abundance of the 'aina inspires many of my projects and I spend most of my time foraging for natural materials from the jungle to add to my works. These materials, texture, color, and form are curated together into books or installations to encompass my pacific island ancestry and the Big Island. Among the landscape, I am conscious of the native and non-native materials that I forage. Especially, if it is a material in a sacred place of Hawaii. I prioritize the sustainability of my studio practice, making sure that what I create is not harmful to the environment to reduce my carbon footprint.
