Morgan O'Hara's childhood and early adolescence in an international community in post-war Japan early established close relationships between east and west, creation and destruction, life and art. Live attention, contact between eye and subject and between pencil and paper are essential to her work. O’Hara lives and works in New York and Corneliano Bertario, Italy.
