INTERSECTIONS: Considering Imbalance
Kahilu Theatre Annual Juried Show
The Galleries at Kahilu Theatre
May 10 ­– June 30, 2018

In a world that seems increasingly polarized, we often find ourselves at metaphorical intersections where a range of forces—cultural, political,economic, emotional—converge. Achieving individual or collective balance when these forces meet and mix may first require disturbances or expressions of resistance. Artists often take a significant role in public discourse when their work is driven by these intersections.

In this exhibition, we invite artists to examine the idea of an intersection as not simply where two or more lines meet—a site that you approach, choose a direction, and then continue on—but as a starting place to consider the imbalance of the status quo.
