HAIR + NAILS (H+N) is thrilled to present I Pray My Soul Is Still Eternal, the first solo exhibition by Minneapolis-born and -based artist Maiya Lea Hartman. These new 2-d and 3-d paintings draw on family photos, creating portals and reflections that warp time in Hartman’s life. Wild stylizations mimic childhood scrapbooking and host contemporary digital interventions. Adornment is celebrated in this vibrant new body of work.
This is Maiya Lea Hartman’s first solo show with HAIR+NAILS. Hartman has previously exhibited with the gallery in group shows “Painting Show” (2022), “Winter Into Spring” (2022) and “The Human Scale” (at Rochester Art Center) (2021).
