Kelly Moran: Apparel for Cosmic Travelers

at LeMieux Galleries in New Orleans, Louisiana, USA
3 January-21 February 2026

Kelly Moran is a collage artist, drawn to the charm and fragility of paper dolls and other forms of vintage ephemera. She gathers remnants of past eras and reimagines them as part of an unfolding visual narrative. In “Apparel for Cosmic Travelers”, she constructs intricate compositions that guide audiences through shifting landscapes of familiar yet mysterious figures. The title reflects a central idea in my work: that we are all voyagers, moving through space and history while gathering the fragments of our shared cultures.
