About the Item
Fu’una’s “I Achiote (The Achiote)” is a contemporary pastel that captures the essence of Guam. It draws the visual connection between achiote tree seed pods, baby chickens, and the Guam seal. It is inspired by the artist’s grandparents' yard, where they had an achiote tree and raised chickens. The dominant colors are black, red, sepia, and teal. The red shape framing the chicks and the seed pods is taken from the Guam seal, which is based on the shape of ancient Chamoru slingstones. This 9 x 12 inch pastel on archival sanded paper is unframed and unmounted. It is signed in the lower right corner.
Fu’una (Kameko Branchaud) is a representational artist working in paint, pastel, and murals. Her work centers human and animal subjects and often draws from her experience as an American woman of indigenous Chamuru heritage. Her work attempts to process the polarity of indigenous and diasporic identity, and the interrelated influences of history, power, and heritage on the environment and the psyche. Her pop-realism style draws upon Fauvism, street art, and tattoo culture. Her recognizable palette is indulgent in its vividness and satisfyingly sensory. She has lived in five regions of America and uses photography, drawing, and research to connect with her surroundings.

"Two Roosters Running Amok on Poipu Beach", Contemporary Mixed Media Print, 2022
By Patty deGrandpre
Located in Franklin, MA
Cropped and deconstructed images of a Kauai beachfront, palm trees and a pair of roosters are represented on 14 x 11 inch Yupo translucent paper in Patty deGrandpre’s contemporary abstract mixed media print titled “Two Roosters Running Amok on Poipu Beach”. This one of kind piece pays homage to this notorious Kauai beach and the roosters and chickens that have become so familiar to the Hawaiian Islands. DeGrandpre thoughtfully combines and layers block printing ink and digital inkjet in hues of blue, orange, yellow, red, and gray. A screen of clouds provides both contrast and texture within the distinct fields of vivid color and the pair of red roosters to create this graphic interpretation of a tropical Hawaiian landscape...
