Haley Takahashi: Ataraxia
September 13 - November 2, 2024
OPENING NIGHT: Friday, September 13th, 6-8 PM
“ATARAXIA explores the intersection of fear, heritage, and resilience. Ataraxia can refer to a state of blissful serenity or disquiet and anxiety. The work in my exhibition grapples with themes of tragedy and the pursuit of serenity in a world wrought with turmoil. Drawing inspiration from cultural heritage (American and Japanese), familial narratives, and the celestial realm, the work will offers a reflection on coping mechanisms and the enduring power of the human spirit.”

Who Does She Think She Is?

“My work explores evolving gender roles and the interplay of tradition and change in women's lives, blending narrative and nostalgia through worn surfaces that evoke both imperfection and resilience, inviting personal interpretation and memories while celebrating women thriving in diverse roles.”
