FIRST FRIDAY • Nature/Nurture

SOWA FIRST FRIDAY! Happens once a month at Sowa, art district in the South End. We welcome visitors to visit our current exhibition <a href="https://www.laisunkeane.com/exhibitions/75-nature-nurture-raina-lee-and-anna-danyang-song/">Nature/Nurture</a> featuring ceramic works by Raina Lee and Anna Danyang Song. We will serve wine and cheese. FREE and open to the public! Address: 460C Harrison Ave C8A Boston MA 02118 About the exhibition: LaiSun Keane is proud to present Nature/ Nurture featuring new works by ceramic artists Raina Lee and Anna Danyang Song, on view May 1 – June 14, 2026.   The exhibition will open with a reception on May 1 from 5pm to 8pm.   This presentation brings together work developed in dialogue between the two artists. Their focus is nature as understood through the cultural context of Chinese medicinal plants and scholar rocks. Drawing from their respective backgrounds and cultural histories, both artists use a combination of age old ceramic techniques and modern technology. The works include vessels and sculptural forms.   Raina Lee was born in Torrance, California to Taiwanese immigrant parents. Her recent exhibitions include sold-out presentations at Felix LA 2026 and NADA New York 2025. LaiSun Keane has previously presented her work in two group exhibitions and in solo booths at Future Fair New York 2025 and Untitled Miami 2025. Her practice centers on ceramic processes that connect personal history with material experimentation.   Anna Danyang Song was born in Shenyang, China and is based in New Jersey. She received her MFA from the Rhode Island School of Design. Her work explores the relationship between analog and digital processes, including the use of 3D clay printing within traditional ceramic practice. LaiSun Keane has worked with Song across three group exhibitions and a two-person booth at SWAB Barcelona 2024.   LaiSun Keane has placed works by both artists in the permanent collection of the Harvard Art Museums.   For press inquiries, images, or additional information, please contact LaiSun Keane at <a href="mailto:laisun@laisunkeane.com">laisun@laisunkeane.com</a> or 978 495 6697.
