Hawaii's Woodshow 2022
The 2022 Hawaii’s Woodshow™, Na La‘au o Hawai‘i is the Hawai‘i Forest Industry Association’s (HFIA) 30th Anniversary woodworking exhibition. Hawaii’s Woodshow encourages an appreciation for the participating artists and the materials they use. The Woodshow promotes the positive role forests play in our economy and ecology. The Show calls for the use of wood from Hawaiian-grown tree species, especially those that have been planted and brought to maturity here in Hawai‘i. It serves as a reference point for the planting of native and non-native high value hardwoods for future generations. This year’s theme is Ho’ike Kālai Kūpono. Three jurors have determined awards based on a balanced knowledge of contemporary woodworking and Hawai‘i forestry. Awards are based on ‘Inspiration of Design” and “Excellence of Implementation”. This year’s Jurors were Marcus Castaing, Vince Hazen and Jorma Winkler. Thank you to Diana Chang, the woodshow coordinator, Bill Brooks, for the use of his music on this video, and to Kyle Metcalf for filming and editing this video.
