Lahav’s work uses portraits, abstracts, and plant sculptures to tell non-linear narratives. Key themes to the artists exploration are under-recognized cultural histories (Great Americans, 48 Jews), pop-culture (Record Paintings) and Lahav’s personal journey as a foster parent (Foster Paintings).
Solo museum shows include the Slater Art Museum CT, Richmond Art Museum IN, Longview MFA TX, Saginaw Art Museum MI, Florence Griswold Museum CT among others, and Lahav’s work can be found in multiple public collections, including the Jewish Museum Milwaukee, Mount Holyoke Art Museum, and more.
