Ke Ala Hele ‘Uhola O Honouliuli

Ka Palapala ʻĀina ʻo Honouliuli. The main focus of the mural is an antique looking map of the ahupaʻa of Honouliuli. Its appearance of color, texture, and condition is meant to have the appearance of a historic piece of velum that has been recently discovered. The “unfolding“ is the basic theme of the mural and is expressed in the title “Ke Ala Hele ʻUhola ʻo Honouliuli,” as the Unfolding Path of Honouliuli. The word ʻuhola resonated for the title of the piece as it expresses both a physical unfolding (as of kapa), as well as an unfolding of the mind (interpreted as the imagination).
