New Works by Dorothy Remington 

About the Exhibition

In Unraveling and Other Arrangements, Dorothy Remington presents a meditative body of work that bridges the gap between traditional ink drawing and three-dimensional sculpture. What began as a simple exploration of line and pochoir evolved into a profound reflection on the passage of time—a "portrait of the artist at eighty."

The exhibition centers on the concept of the "cumulative line." As Remington’s ink drawings grew in complexity, they began to resemble intricate weavings that appear to be simultaneously coming together and coming apart. Moving beyond the constraints of the traditional frame, Remington has developed modular display methods that allow her drawings to take on a sculptural quality. These pieces invite a "harmony of edges," where works can be rearranged, hung, or stood independently, suggesting that despite the appearance of unraveling, every element fundamentally belongs together.

Victoria Ward Park
Honolulu

Artist: Hiroki Morinoue
About the work;
This proposal has gone through its own journey.  I was asked to be thoughtful and non-political around Victoria Ward's legacy.  She was a steward of her land, held cultural traditions with pride through her land stewardship for her people, and was a close friend of Queen Lili'uokalani.  She also had seven daughters. 
A Hawaiian fishpond is significant; it was once vibrant and common in this area as a cultural tradition that fostered a regenerative fishing practice to feed their people for generations to come.  

The large ripple in the center symbolizes Victoria Ward.  The smaller ripples surrounding the center ripple symbolize her seven daughters.  The ripples themselves on the water's still surface symbolize the generational and regenerative impact that Victoria Ward had. The surface stillness, creating clear, solid ripples, marks a peaceful sense of place.

The two blue rings on the outside symbolize high and low tide.  The black rocks are the suggestive visual of traditional rock walls, and the pathways become currents and entryways into the fishpond.
