Gateway artist Marisa Morán Jahn will share the inspiration behind TIPSY, on view in the Great Hall through November 14, 2027. The site-specific installation draws upon SAMA’s history as the former Lone Star Brewery along with cross-cultural traditions of imbibing spirits that are represented throughout the Museum’s collections. Jahn, who was born in Texas to an Ecuadorian mother and Chinese father, frequently creates artwork that remixes cultural icons to destabilize fixed ideas. Her presentation will situate TIPSY within her broader practice of art and design to explore how shared histories and the concept of play can shift perspectives.Based in New York City, Marisa Morán Jahn is a visual artist, creative director, and the director of the Integrated Design Program at Parsons/The New School. Jahn’s collaborative and socially engaged practice explores civic spaces and the radical art of play, often in large-scale public artworks and spatial interventions. She earned a BA from the University of California Berkeley and an MS from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) where she is an ongoing Senior Researcher.
