Mixed-media assemblage using reclaimed denim and textile. Functions as a wearable object.
Repurposed vintage “aloha” shirt embedded into thrifted denim. This work confronts the transformation of Hawaiian culture into a consumable aesthetic - rebranded, exported, and worn without accountability.
This is not nostalgia. This jacket calls attention to how Hawaiian culture is marketed, worn, and consumed while the people it belongs to are displaced, silenced, or reduced to branding.
This jacket is 1 of 2. Each sold individually. This piece may be worn on the body or held as an object, allowing the work to move between private and public space.
