Hawai’i Contemporary has announced the artists and collectives who will participate in Hawai’i Triennial 2025 (HT25) at sites across O’ahu, Hawai’i Island, and Maui from 15 February to 4 May.

The list is strong on artists working in territories all over the Pacific, including many with indigenous heritage in the region.

They include: Megan Cope (Australia), Sung Hwan Kim (Korea), Gisela McDaniel (U.S.A./Guam), John Pule (Niue), Citra Sasmita (Indonesia), Stephanie Syjuco (Philippines), and Shannon Te Ao (New Zealand).

Also participating are the Puerto Rican duo Allora & Calzadilla and two collectives with superb names—South Korea’s Rice Brewing Sisters Club and the Auckland-based Taro Patch Creative.

The full list of participating artists can be found on the HT25 website here.

‘We have centred artists whose practices are shaped by their shared commitment to learning from and loving the people and places from where they and their ancestors come; in particular, Hawai’i, the Pacific, and other islands and nations that share similar histories and struggles,’ said curators Wassan Al-Khudhairi, Binna Choi, and Noelle M.K.Y. Kahanu.

Next year’s triennial is titled ALOHA NŌ, a name that collapses the English negative ‘no’ with the Hawaiian intensifier ‘nō’ to emphasise healing and the assertion of sovereignty in the face of ‘colonial occupation and capitalist violence,’ the curators said. —[O]
