Aunty Kanoe
Kanoelani Davis s a Native Hawaiian woman of Moloka‘i, whose roots extend back for generations. She is a lifelong cultural practitioner and torchbearer for the survival of many Hawaiian art forms. It is her way of life and in many instances, it does not separate from her being. Her dedication to culture, advocacy for cultural awareness, and love for design have been woven together and manifests in the patterns that adorn the wearable art of PōMahina Designs.
Each design is significant to stories of our ancestors (mo’olelo) and events which are connected to the Hawaiian Indigenous people.
PōMahina – a clear and bright moon, whether seen or unseen, she encompasses the night sky from horizon to horizon bringing an energy that is shared with the world.
