MOANA [curator's statement]

"Bruna chooses creatures who have no voice, who are often misunderstood and forgotten because they are merely beautiful but silent. Bruna speaks for the creatures who can't, and by listening to her and seeing them as she sees them, I'm humbled by the capacity we humans have to think more meaningful thoughts, create a better existence for us to live and build a life, and respect this world and all who share it."

- L.J.C. Shimoda, artist and gallery director of The Kaua‘i Museum
