“Malolo: Flight of the Sea” — a 24" x 18" woodblock and linocut print. The flying fish (malolo) soars between water and sky, a symbol of navigation, migration, and ancestral guidance.
In Malolo: Flight of the Sea, the flying fish—known in Hawaiian as malolo—leaps between the realms of water and air. Carved and layered through woodblock and linocut, the form arcs across a circular motif that evokes sun, compass, and horizon. Surrounding marks echo currents, stars, and ancestral symbols, situating the fish as both creature and navigator. The work honors migration, survival, and the deep relationship between voyagers and the living sea.
