People from across the islands, country and world have had to change with the pandemic throughout the past year. Challenging as it has been, Windward Community College art students and instructors adapted to instruction via Zoom. The fresh works housed in an exhibition called Confluence 6<\/em><\/a> in Gallery ʻIolani<\/span><\/a> are a tribute to students\u2019 creativity and what is achievable.<\/p>\n

Confluence 6<\/em> features more than 130 student works from studio art classes at Windward CC<\/abbr> in ceramics, color theory, drawing, 2D design, painting, gallery design and management, photography, screen printing, sculpture and Hawaiian carving.<\/p>\n

“This was my first time working on a ceramic bust,” said student Jade Hurley<\/strong>, “and my first time working on something like this over Zoom.”<\/p>\n

An acrylic painting by student Erin Wesly<\/strong> titled “Disney Pink” offers brick and mortar bathed in tones of delicate pink and purple into the form of towering castle walls.<\/p>\n

“My art is an accomplishment of being able to get out of my perceived limits,” said Wesly.<\/p>\n

This year marks the 30-year anniversary of Gallery ʻIolani<\/span>, celebrating more than 160 exhibitions in the current 1,600-square-foot gallery located adjacent to Palik\u016b Theatre, and from 1991 to 2003 in Hale ʻIolani<\/span>. Gallery ʻIolani<\/span> was voted runner-up in the category for best art gallery in Honolulu Star Advertiser\u2019s<\/em> Hawaii\u2019s Best 2020.<\/p>\n
