Dori (Hahn) Altshuler

Why this artist matters now

Dori (Hahn) Altshuler works with textile as both material and conceptual anchor, creating pieces that engage with fiber's capacity to hold structure, narrative, and temporal mark. Her practice treats cloth as a language, where weaving, dyeing, and surface manipulation become vehicles for investigating themes of memory, domesticity, and cultural transmission. The work operates at the intersection of craft tradition and contemporary art discourse, deploying handmade processes to challenge assumptions about textiles as decorative or functional rather than conceptually rigorous.
