100 Aspects of the Moon
October 3rd – November 30th, 2019

Lauren Iida’s 100 Aspects of the Moon series is inspired by Japanese woodblock artist, Yoshitoshi’s, 1890s series by the same name. This collection of intricate hand-cut works captures moments from the artist’s experience – inspired by her home in Cambodia, or drawing on her Japanese American family’s archive of vintage photographs. Each of the 100 pieces in this series reference the moon in some way, symbolizing the common thread of humanity through time, distance, and culture. A selection of the remaining works in the series will be on display, and additional works from this series will be available for viewing by request. If you’ve ever wanted an affordable, small-scale piece by Lauren Iida, this is the series for you!
