Artist Chase Hall discusses his new solo exhibition “Momma’s Baby, Daddy’s Maybe” at Galerie Eva Presenhuber in Vienna, which takes its title from a phrase his father told him in childhood. The show explores themes of race, mixed-race identity, fatherhood, and family dynamics, using coffee as a signature medium—Hall layers espresso on raw cotton canvas to create symbolic and formal depth. The exhibition follows his rise from photojournalism to a buzzy painting career, with works acquired by major institutions and auction records at Christie’s.
