Hannah Adair

Artist

Atlanta, GA

Drawing, Printmaking, Papermaking, etc.

My work is about the tactile, sensual body and abstract inner experience. I choose process-based, visceral media as a grounding structure for intuitive exploration. I draw from folklore, fairy tales, mythology, pop culture, personal and family history, especially relating to mental illness. I am estranged from my family of origin, and am attracted to the alienation inherent in printmaking, the separation between the matrix and impression, as well as the chance introduced through the process. I look for this elsewhere in my practice, in the mold and object, the transformation of the kiln, and in objects that feel like relics, disconnected from some unknown context.

Upcoming solo exhibition at shedspace at whitespace gallery.

The bell chime calls the night.

Exhibition at Dalton Gallery at Agnes Scott College. March 30- April 14, 2023.

The bell chime calls the night curated by Eso Tilin Projects features the works of Hannah Adair, Laura Bejarano and Parisa Ott.

Together, the works in the exhibition, act like tangential lines that delineate a realm beyond the physical. A symbolic and imaginary space where the organic never decays, it is crystallized and preserved.
