This weekend, (Sat 10/13 and Sun 10/14) an installation I'm working on with Jiny Ung will open as part of the Project Rowhouse thang in Houston's Third Ward. Basically, we had a row house and about one month to create an installation around the theme "RACE and CLASS." Please come if you are in the area, I will hi5 you IMMEDIATELY.

Thank you very much, friends. You are kind.

lovelove,
hanalei

ps: it says i'm from DC, but i'm not.

What the show is all about...

“Intertwined” asks if it is possible for individuals to survive in the same place, despite different histories. The installation specifically concentrates on migration and community building, creating a string of stories where matters of race and class become embedded within a larger nest. This project uses visual art and poetry to invite Third Ward to critically participate in the installation. As a result, this site-specific work documents the change within this space, and the unwritten stories of those who live here. This installation hopes that Third Ward will take ownership of this creative process, and redefine the role of the community and individuals have within efforts to initiate dialogue in areas affected by various forms of integration and cohabitation.

i miss you.

this summer has been relentless, but productive. this isn't the sound of me complaining, just a little bit exhausted is all.

since april/may of this year, projects have lined up, and i have been lucky. either prepared for the opportunity, or willing to work my way to earning it. since returning to my hometown, i've been better able to gauge my personal growth. for this, i am grateful.

jiny ung and i have been named the round 27 fellows for Houston's Project Rowhouses. the interactive installation will open mid-October.

find us :)

i read an old diary of mine, and discovered that i still love the potential in people the same way did years ago. they are hand-selected. recently, i'm fighting inklings. when i begin to say "endearing" repeatedly, well, i believe you and i both know what that means. (as my facebook.com horoscope predictor is insanely accurate. which reminds me, i adopted a baby wallaby who i am training to be a champion racer. thanks, fbook!)

mmmmm! isn't public process tasty?!
