“Momentum” by Hawai‘i-based artist Kris Goto is a meditation on collaboration and collective energy. This piece reminds us that individual achievement is often made possible through the support of others—how momentum builds when people align and move together.
Part of Goto’s Season series, Momentum reflects on timing, growth, and connection. Much like fruit ripens only in its right season, so too do opportunities, conversations, and relationships. Meeting the right moment—and the right people—brings momentum and meaning.
With her signature pen-and-ink linework and contemporary storytelling, Kris Goto creates a work that is both visually striking and conceptually rich, inviting reflection on the power of unity and support.
