Michael Aghahowa answers 20 Artist Questions with Agatha Morrell for ReachArts.org in Swampscott Massachusetts.
Michael Aghahowa is a Lynn based artist. He has rooted his practice in community engagement and a steady studio practice. His paintings and artwork reflect the people around him. These people emerge from his work as portraits and references for illustrations. Michael graduated from Montserrat College of Art with a BFA in illustration. He is currently an MFA candidate at Massachusetts College of Art and Design. In 2019 Michael had solo exhibitions at Google in Cambridge and GAS Gallery in Lynn, MA. Michael and his partner Cinda received a $10,000 grant to paint a wrap around mural in Lynn, MA at Ernie’s Harvest Time. The mural is a collaboration with The Food Project. Currently Michael teaches Drawing 1 for the freshman class at Montserrat College of Art as an adjunct professor.
