Red Brigade Films short documentary featuring Ian Kuali’i

Ian Kuali’i is a multi-disciplinary self-taught artist of Hawaiian/Apache ancestry whose career spans two decades working in the forms of murals, large-scale cut-paper, prints, and site-specific installations. While trying to simplify his technique as a graffiti writer, Ian discovered stenciling and realized that he appreciated the “cut” more than the spray, thus finding his preferred medium – hand-cut paper. Over the past year Kuali'i has been in the process of transforming his art practice to include large scale land art prayer installations.

Director Razelle Benally from Red Brigade Films, says:

“The STTLMNT video series is not only a response to the current state of the world, but illuminates the proactive nature and resilience of the artists, bringing back a sense of unity in a time where social engagement is limited.”

Directed/Produced by STTLMNT Artist Razelle Benally with Cinematographer/Assistant Adam Conte
