Dreamland by Wawe Studios
“An art experience that embodies the gap between the freedom and sweetness of youth and the transformation into adulthood.”
Open Jan 16th – Feb 14th, 2021
About the Artist
Wawe is a multimedia-based artist from Hawaii. She studied traditional Illustration with a focus on children’s books. This focus turned into a study of color and shapes to explore the connection through childhood and nostalgia that has led to the creation of playful characters that embody the gap between the freedom and sweetness of youth and the transformation into adulthood.
About “Dreamland” by Wawe Studios:
The art-work that will be included in this show will consist of everything from large sculptures and paintings to a new series of prints, pins, stickers, jewelry, and so much more, truly highlighting the multi-talented artist that is Wawe. “This showcase is a culmination of characters that I’ve made that I find myself drawn to. A lot of these characters are ones I’ve worked on for some time and have evolved slowly throughout the span of my (career). It also contains spurts of themes I constantly come back to (fruits, bugs, flowers, and weather)”, Said Wawe.
What can we expect to see from Wawe? Paintings will line the walls of Spectra Art Space in various sizes including large-scale works in sizes that have previously never been offered by the artist. Larger than life clay sculptures will be on display, as well as a new collection of ceramic work which will be released midway through the show running. There will be a variety of prints from her new Fairy Tale Series, and a variety of charms including her popular hand-made clay charms. She will also be releasing Mystery Pin Bags for the first time ever! There will be a collection of her new handmade Fine Silver pendants and charms on display as well as a variety of stickers and her new Apple Juice Plush Pouches.
