The Curated

Art Merge

Connecting community with art | connecting artists with artists

It started with an idea…

to have all of my creative friends from different art backgrounds…

showcase their art,

under one roof,

for one evening.

Then… it turned into so much more.

Colorful, abstract digital artwork with overlaid text reading "the CURATED ART MERGE".

Beyond my personal art practice, I’ve been curating and creating art events across Hawai‘i to spotlight local artists and foster a sense of creative community.

My goal is to make space for emerging voices, encourage collaboration, and help others see themselves as creatives and artists too.

Whether it's through organizing exhibitions or collaborative projects, I'm passionate about showcasing artists and giving them the opportunity to be seen.
