Opening Reception Friday, May 31, 6-9 p.m.
Hello Friends,
SoNa Chicago is proud to feature new work by artist Laleh Motlagh in a solo exhibition from May 31 - July 20, 2024. As an Iranian Azerbaijanis-American woman, Laleh Motlagh delves into profound explorations of love, intimacy, spirituality, trust, and resilience while remaining present to her own localities. Based in Chicago, Motlagh challenges socio-cultural alienation and navigates the complexities of multicultural identity.
Her new exhibition, Entanglement, explores issues related to transformation of personal memories, contemplation on entanglement, love, care and intimacy, containment & consolation, and seeing the unseen.
Laleh Motlagh has received multiple awards and recognitions. Among them is being named as one of NewCity’s Breakout Artists of 2023. She received her MFA from the University of Illinois Chicago and teaches at the School of the Art Institute in Chicago.
The Opening Reception is Friday, May 31 from 6-9 pm. An artist talk is scheduled for Saturday, Jun 22 from 1-2 pm. The exhibition runs through July 20, 2024.
We look forward to seeing you at the gallery!
Laura Botwinick & Molly O’Donnell
