Emanuel Hahn will be in residence at The Square from November - December, 2023.
Emanuel Hahn is a Los Angeles-based photographer and director whose work explores themes of cultural identity and the immigrant experience in the United States. He draws on history, archival photography, Western and Korean art, and personal memories to construct scenes that show different facets of the immigrant experience. He's interested in challenging simplistic notions of the American immigrant process - whether it's the model minority myth, or the bootstrap model - and also complicating the seemingly linear idea of assimilation.
