Moga

Opening Reception: Saturday, April 18, 2026 | 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM
Location: Fresh Mochi Art | 2900 21st Ave S, Seattle, WA 98144

Fresh Mochi Art is proud to present "Moga," a group exhibition featuring six distinguished artists of Japanese and Japanese-American ancestry: Patti Warashina, Catherine Cross Uehara, Hanako O’Leary, Sakura Davis and Elizabeth Jameson. The exhibition title, Moga, is a Japanese portmanteau for modan gāru (Modern Girl), a term originally used in the 1920s to describe women who challenged traditional Japanese social norms by embracing Westernized fashion and lifestyle. In this contemporary showcase, these four artists reclaim and expand the term, using ceramics, drawings, and mixed media to explore the intersection of heritage, gender, and the evolving identity of the modern woman.
