How does a recognized contemporary art space pay a genuine and interesting tribute to a traditional, rarely exhibited communal craft from a nearby region? Our exhibition design and graphic identity for Koloa: Women, Art, and Technology steered away from standard exhibition tropes, and instead emphasized horizontality, clustering, and the need for building ambulatory itineraries among floating entities. Alluding to ASCII computer graphics, the identity echoed the woven structure of the exhibited works and equally heightened the contemporariness of the works, mirroring the uncommon scales also present in the art works.
