|
Hanna's paintings are hidden stories striving to find their voice, and each piece is an attempt to make sense of unsure answers to ever-changing questions. Intertwining scrawled out text with abstract atmospheres, she creates stories within layers of paint and ink. The words in her work draw influence from inner dissonance, adverse experience, and unfailing resilience within herself as well as from society. Each account may be written out and written over as the narrative changes. Process is what gives her work its power - the unabashed impulse of the gesture, emotion in the movement, and pain of the unheard struggle. The use of text as image ties everything together to become not only a work of art, but a cathartic experience for both artist and audience. She aims for her work to inspire the viewer to ask questions and fearlessly reach inward to discover their own answers and stories.

INWARD
My work has always contained an element of mystery through its most prominent feature: the illegible script. These writings are my innermost thoughts, and I’ve always wanted to keep them obscured and unattainable. With my new project, Inward, I will step out and finally reveal the text from selected paintings. Inward will show the true concept behind each piece, raw and unregulated.
Before I unmask my words, I want to know what you see in the selected piece. I have always found it fascinating what the audience perceives compared to what the artist intends. Everyone sees the world through different eyes, and I’m curious to know the significance others find in my work.
For one week, I’ll have an entry form available at hannabruer.com for you to share your interpretation of the piece that is currently spotlighted. At the end of that week, I’ll unveil my text. The next week we’ll carry on with another piece, and we’ll repeat this for a number of weeks. Participation is not necessary, and remaining anonymous is completely acceptable.
I’m grateful for your curiosity and appreciation, and I look forward to sharing myself with you by shedding light on what I’ve always turned inward.
Thank you, my friends.
Love,
H
