Artist list

Kay Sekimachi, Kiff Slemmons
Work in this exhibition is inspired by the beach combings of reknowned fiber artist Kay Sekimachi and celebrated jeweler Kiff Slemmons during their stays at Puako, Hawaii. Puako Beach is located on the Big Island of Hawaii on the South Kohala coast. Kay Sekimachi has been combing the sandy beach and lava-formed tidepools in Puako Bay for twenty years. Kay is famous for her baskets and hanging sculpture and has recently started making jewelry. Kiff is known for incorporating poetic detritus of the world around her and her Puako jewelry gives her an opportunity to celebrate the beauty of humble materials. Kay and Kiff have collaborated on a few pieces although most of this work reflects their individual responses to the natural environment at Puako.
