Painters and ceramicists collide in "Forms of Voids." Two local artists—painter Kloe Kang and ceramicist Suzanne Wolfe—explore the symbolic power of the bowl, bridging the gap between ethereal painting and tactile clay.
After first collaborating in 2007 at the Honolulu Academy of Arts (Linekona), Kang and Wolfe reunite for a shared investigation of one of humanity's most elemental objects. The exhibit uses the simple form of a "bowl" to explore complex themes of identity and physical reality.
In this renewed partnership, the artists transition from sharing a studio to sharing a conceptual anchor. Kang’s paintings function as "visual pronouns" exploring the ephemeral state of being, while Wolfe’s ceramic forms remain rooted in material reality, layered with intricate text and imagery. It is a compelling look at how local artists collaborate and evolve across different mediums over decades.

With the drop of his deeply soulful, uber infectious second full-length album As Is, multi- talented singer/songwriter and producer Aaron Night takes his artistry and career to an inspiring new, sharing both his infectious “Aloha spirit” and more introspective aspects of his personality on a dynamic 10-track collection fusing retro sonic sounds and cultural elements of his Hawaiian heritage with his ever-evolving multitude of talents as a pop, R&B and dance/electronic artist and performer.
Adding to Aaron’s fast-growing list of accolades, As Is, released by Universal Music Group/ Dauman Music/Virgin/Downtown, quickly charted at #1 on Amazon Music, prompting an effusive, gratitude filled Instagram outpouring characteristic of his exuberant energy and positivity: “I’ve been spinning in circles for no reason at all afternoon – this still doesn’t feel real’ before thanking Amazon music, everyone streaming the album, “every supporter, every believer, every share, every voice. This win is ours!”
Hitting the pole position on Amazon Music extends an exciting streak of international chart success that began with his 2021 hit “Flares,” penned by Ryan Tedder which reached the Top Ten spot on Music Week’s UK Pop Chart and #1 on the German Dance Charts. “Through It All,” the second single from Aaron’s debut album Be Patient, was popular across the U.S. continent, debuting at #1 on Chicago radio its first week of release.
