Join artist Kenyatta Kelechi and curator, Katherine Love, as they discuss the artist's solo exhibition Laulima. Kelechi uses the 19th-century technique of wet-plate collodion photography to examine concepts of indigenous identity and connection to family and place. His glass and aluminum plates and large-scale black-and-white prints document and celebrate Kānaka ʻŌiwi (Native Hawaiian) cultural practitioners of today and their enduring respect and care for the ʻāina.
