Under the Influence

Glad to be part of Under the Influence
a group exhibition that explores the dynamic and ever-evolving conversation between artists across time and space. This group exhibition invites artists to showcase how their work reflects the profound influence of others—whether through the inspiration drawn from contemporary peers, responses to past movements, or conversations with the art world at large. In this show, art is seen as a continuous dialogue where each creator builds upon the ideas and styles of those who came before them. Under the Influence is a celebration of how artistic expression transcends boundaries and creates new connections, where every piece tells a story of influence—be it through technique, concept, or thematic resonance.
RECEPTION From 05/02/2025 - 5:00pm to 06/28/2025 - 8:00pm Lux Center for the Arts, WEST GALLERY 
May 2nd, 2025 to June 28th, 2025
Hold Fast
Anchoring ourselves in the delicate balance of stillness and motion, we hold onto what we can save. This mosaic of resilience and connection is pieced together from fragments of memory, heritage, and belonging. Across borders, we engage with forces that shape and fracture our lives—grief, loss, hope, and memory—tracing echoes of connections and divisions. 
We pause at a moment of in-betweenness, coming together for a harmonious connection of the past three years as four artists. Seeking grace, we step into the future, holding fast to the weight of hope as we carry it forward.
ARITISTS:
Mahsa Attaran, Hanieh Kashani, Monica Hamilton, Anna Schwartz
