HAWAIIAN WOOD CARVINGS INTO GEOMETRIC WAVE ART

Hokua means “Crest of the wave” in Hawaiian, and is the ultimate Mecca for surfers. Massive swells like the one sculpted in this geometric wave art seem to defy the parameters and boundaries that we live within on land. The way the wood wave extends beyond the frame of this abstract hawaiian art sculpture, reminds us that the ocean is mighty.

Hawaiian Art Inspired Wall Sculpture

Have you ever visited Hawaii? If you have – you’ve experienced Oluolu, or, bliss. Hawaii’s white sand beaches and turquoise waters are the perfect getaway. In equal measures relaxing and rambunctious, the infinite coast of Hawaii is constantly dotted with people experiencing their versions of Bliss. The Hawaiian natives and transplants aren’t exempt from the bliss of the islands either – in fact, they’re the ones who know it best. Hawaii boasts a diverse population of land lovers and – much like the depiction in this Hawaiian wood carving – those who can’t get enough of sea and sky.

HAWAIIAN INSPIRED Vintage Surf Art

“HOKUA”

Hawaiian sunsets are known for being vibrant and drenched in color and depth. Blame it on the emissions from old volcanoes, the equatorial proximity, or the heat but the Hawaiian sky is a tropical dance of hues and luminescence. When those colors play and perform over crystal-clear water, casting reflections of absolute grandeur. That’s part of what inspires pieces like this vintage surf art piece – whether in Hawaii or any other coastal paradise – the colors of the sky made immeasurable by their kinship with the waves below.
