East Hawai’i Cultural Center is currently displaying Shingo Honda’s exhibition Parallel which is curated by Andrzej Kramarz through September 24, 2021.
Honda, who came to the Big Island in 2005, was associated with the Mono-Ha art group in Japan. A striking feature of Honda’s work is his exploration of white space – described by author and art critic Amaury Saint-Gilles as “the liberator and savior connecting the past to the present.”
Through collaboration with public and private industry, Destination Hilo strives to increase visitor satisfaction, extend length of stay, and provide innovative visitor activities offering unique Hawaiian experiences. Efforts are focused on improving quality of life for residents by contributing to a healthy social and economic culture. Destination Hilo’s flagship “Hawaiian Greetings Program” provides music, entertainment, and networking services to thousands of visitors arriving at Hilo Pier and in Downtown Hilo.
