In collaboration with POW! WOW! Hawaii, the first project in the SAVE ART initiative features the work of Hawaiian muralist and artist Aaron Kai. As a private non-profit charity that promotes art through education, SAVE ART asked Kai to appropriate a vintage Herman Miller “Surfboard” table with his signature colorful “post-pop” wave motifs to create a piece that could be sold, from which all the proceeds will go to POW! WOW! Hawaii. Watch the video above for the process of producing the piece, and head over here for more on the SAVE ART project.
