ARTIST VISIT - Maw Reh: Building a Sculpture


  • Art Farm Iowa 4953 Olive Avenue Northwood, IA, 50459 United States (map)

Maw Reh will be back at Art Farm Iowa to complete a sculpture during the month of June. Stop by during open hours to meet Maw and view his work.

Maw Reh is a first-generation, Karenni-American artist from Phoenix, Arizona. Maw was born in a refugee camp in Thailand, on the border with Burma. Maw's parents fled Burma to America when he was 11.

Maw has an Associate's Degree from Phoenix College and further study at Arizona State University. Maw's pride in, and love for the history of his people are part of his work.

"I want my work to be a source of pride for Karenni everywhere -- for all those in diaspora, who struggle, where ever they are, to keep the connection with their roots. I'll be thrilled for Karenni to see the work in person, or through various social media where I post."
