Carl F.K. Pao. Kupuna Maka. Edition Size: 35. 13 x 17 Inches Archival Pigment Print on 310gsm Bright White Fine Art Paper. $ 50.00. "This print is of an original painting from my most recent solo exhibit during the month of November at the Mahoa Gallery, Honolulu. Maka is a Hawaiian word with numerous meanings, but is more known as the meaning of the eye(s) of a face. Here I am exploring one or several of the overlapping meanings of Maka. More specifically, that Maka also means the male component of a flower. I have the Maka within a mouth of a ki?i being protected from harm." - Carl Pao.
