KAI HALI’A  [2024]

ROLESDigital Artist, Interaction Designer

DESCRIPTIONKai Hali‘a  (Sea of Memory) is a semi-autobiographical, live cinematic experience that incorporates interactive technology with digital and film footage, direct film animation, immersive sound, embodied movement and choreography, and generative animations spawned by movement.

Kai Hali‘a (Sea of Memory) reconfigures the traditional and phallic concept of memory by exploring memory from a sensual, queer, feminine, Kānaka ʻŌiwi, diasporic perspective. Seeing memory as an intricate ʻupena of both intangible and tangible threads of reality, intertwined with visceral feelings that intimately connect us with our kūpuna and the ʻāina, the act of remembering becomes our way back to our core.
