Hana is an emerging artist based in Melbourne. Embracing creating hand-built sculptural vessels, Hana’s ongoing development in exploring new forms often takes visual inspiration from sculpture, natural forms, ancient pottery and her travels. Pieces are often attached to a personal narrative, they are made in a slow and considered way, one piece evolves into another and allows Hana to continue refining her studio based practice to create pieces that merge sculpting and hand building techniques whilst subtly playing with shape, form and texture.
