The Makery to Present Guest Artist Linda Kane

Guest artist Linda Kane will present her art work at an opening reception at The Makery Gallery & Gift Shop during Downtown Hilo’s First Friday, March 6 form 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. The work will be displayed through March 27.

Kane’s show, “Between Worlds,” includes an array of pieces from pre-Photoshop manipulated photography and dioramas in tribute to her favorite artists to mixed media driftwood sculptures of goddesses and other spiritual figures.

An intermediary between the human imagination and reality, Kane’s intention is to take viewers to places they have never been before or to places they may have forgotten.

Described by The Makery, Kane’s show “places emphasis on the space between: between this world and the next, between nature and humankind, between the east and the west, between the flesh and the spirit, between the familiar and the mysterious.”

Since moving to Hawai’i in 2004, Kane’s photography has been shown in a variety of shows. Her interests have also grown to film, which led to the release of her feature documentary “Nona Beamer: A Legacy of Aloha.”

Currently, Kane is filming a documentary on the Star of the Sea Painted Church in Kalapana. She also continues to collect interesting driftwood for more sculptures.
