I started Poi Dawg a while back as a way to document and publish some of my more noteworthy artistic endeavors. What began as a clever tag and a sticker I put everywhere eventually grew into a brand of its own, becoming a space where I could curate printmaking, mural painting, clothing design, woodworking, and everything in between.

Poi Dawg is still a brand I cherish and will continue to nurture. Koloikāpō Designs, however, is meant to become the Design House from which each of these projects can grow, develop, and find its place. Rather than being defined by one medium or discipline, Koloikāpō Designs will serve as the larger creative umbrella — a home for the different practices, collaborations, and ideas that make up my work.
