Solo Show with Moira Hahn
About Moira Hahn
Moira Hahn was born in Boston, MA, and earned her BFA at Maryland
Institute College of Art, in Baltimore and participated in additional
studies in animation at CalArts. After completing her graduate work in animation at CalArts, she studied traditional Japanese art in both Hawaii and Japan.
Since these initial studies, Hahn has continued to look east for inspiration. She has found it in Persian miniatures, Tibetan Thanka paintings, Japanese Ukiyo-e prints, Indian animal drawings and Chinese guardian figures. Her visual statements which often deal with social and policital issues, seamlessly converge traditional Asian art subjects and genres with iconography from contemporary popular culture including manga, anime and tattoo art.
Hahn shows with Koplin Del Rio Gallery, in Los Angeles, and Roq La Rue Gallery in Seattle. This year she has shown in exhibitions at Pacific Asia Museum (Los Angeles) and Roq La Rue. In addition to Magic Pony Gallery, this fall she will show her watercolors at Laguna Art Museum in Laguna Beach, CA; Judson Galleries in Los Angeles; Toyroom Gallery, in Sacramento CA; and Trinity Gallery, in Philadelphia PA.
This will be Hahn's first solo show in Canada.
