Hawaiian artist, illustrator and self-described ‘possibilist’ Solomon Enos evokes Pacific science fiction and fantasy for his art created in his series across different media Polyfantastica

The works manifest a timeline spanning 40,000 years, providing the parallel universe of a para-Polynesian society which overcomes death, destruction and war, and connects all human consciousness while retaining individual identity.

Graphite works by Enos are currently on display at The Dowse Art Museum in Lower Hutt as part of Whetūrangitia/Made As Stars until 19 February. More details here.
