Laura Kina

Set during the 1920’s-1940’s, Laura Kina’s SUGAR paintings (2010-present) recall obake ghost stories and feature Japanese and Okinawan picture brides turned machete carrying sugar cane plantation field laborers on the Big Island of Hawaii. Kina’s paintings take us into a beautiful yet grueling world of manual labor, cane field fires and flumes. View the series: http://www.laurakina.com/sugar.html
