About the Exhibition

THROUGH DECEMBER 31, 2023

A native of Los Angeles, Maren Hassinger (b.1947) is a multimedia artist whose practice bridges fiber arts, installation, performance, and sculpture. Incorporating everyday materials such as wire, rope, newspapers, plastic bags, petals, and dirt, Hassinger's art explores the subjects of movement, family, love, nature, the environment, consumerism, identity, and race. Hassinger has stated that her work “focuses on elements, or even problems—social and environmental—that we all share, and in which we all have a stake….I want it to be a humane and humanistic statement about our future together.”
