Kainoa Gruspe is a painter interested in the systems and conventions that have been set up in our manmade world. His work deals with/pokes fun at the self reverent, boring, absurd structures laid before us. The act of art making itself and its ideas of skill, beauty, and value has been a fruitful area for Gruspe’s exploration and deconstruction. He holds a BFA from the University of Hawai‘i at Mānoa and is currently finishing an MFA at Slade School of Fine Art, UCL, in London.
