Hawai’i is my home, while to many others, my home is their paradise. I want viewers to see that a familiar place can be different depending on its geographical and demographical characteristics. This place can hold a separated set of experi- ences; one that is culture rich and full of stories. My work is a staging of carefully collected materials and objects from my home. More specifically, my art deals with how a corporate identity can conform to a culture’s needs and lifestyle. The exterior and interior of a convenience store give key to the objects in my display and give entire thought to design, typography, and composition. My work tributes to the thinking of culture, both from the past and current culture of Hawaii’s society. It embodies a feeling that reminds me of the people I grew up around, and a unique place that is widely recognized among an international identity, but dwells with a larger audience.
