28.02.18 — Jeff Hamada

POW! WOW! Hawaii 2018 is all wrapped up and it was another one for the books. Thank you to everyone who came out to our artist talk with Daniel Arsham (also thank you to everyone who tuned in online). Have a look below at some photos of the local and international artists who spent the week making art in the Kaka’ako district of Honolulu.

All the photos below were shot by POW! WOW! founder Jasper Wong and myself.
