Hanna Hedman

The detailed work of artist Hanna Hedman has for the past two decades centered around adornment, objects and public environments. Hedman’s signature technique employs the layering of different materials, textures and patterns creating a sense of depth and complexity imbued with emotional and symbolic significance, evoking melancholy, the fragility of life and the passage of time, while the tactile and visual qualities draw the viewer into the artwork. She is heavily influenced by her surroundings and reflections on the natural world as she draws inspiration from organic forms such as plants, flowers and other natural elements, which is transform into elaborate and often surreal compositions. Hanna’s work reflects a fascination with the human condition, particularly the themes of life, death and decay.
