The San Francisco Hall of Justice has just installed Japanese-American paintings by Michelle Sakhai.

From the age of two, Michelle was traveling back and forth to Japan to visit her family. At the same time, she grew up with her Persian family and community in New York. Having both cultures in her young life impacted and influenced her perception and artistic imagination. Initially, Sakhai was taught by Russian artist Vladimir Terechtchenkov, while being enrolled in Japanese school, English school, and Hebrew classes.

Michelle Sakhai's paintings shown at the Hall of Justice are influenced by Contemporary Japanese wood block prints with the added inspiration of gold, silver, and copper leafing.

We invite you to take a look at her work located at 850 Bryant San Francisco, CA 94103.

If you would like to know more about Michelle Sakhai's paintings, or would be interested in exhibiting her work, please take a look at her website at http://www.michellesakhai.com or contact us via email at miskaistudios [at] gmail.com.
