The uluhe, a fern endemic to Hawaii, is one of the early plants to populate lava fields, growing in dense, tangled thickets. Photos of fresh green fronds create the upper flags and photos of spent branches create the lower flags. Charlene Asato was born and raised in Hawaii, spent 36 years in the San Francisco Bay Area, then moved back to Hawaii Island in 2003. She currently focuses on incorporating various art processes into her artist books, i.e., calligraphy, photography, paper surface design, watercolor, embossing, linocuts, origami, assemblage and collage. She teaches workshops in bookbinding and paper arts. |
