The participating artists are Gaye Chan, Vincent Goudreau, Wendy Kawabata, Jinja Kim, Joyce Kozloff, Maya Portner, Abigail Lee Kahilikia Romanchak, Laura Smith, and Lori Uyehara. Boyd Sugiki: Elements Glass artist Boyd Sugiki’s recent series, Elements, was inspired by the cityscape that surrounded him during recent travels to Istanbul, Turkey.
