British visual Artist, 29.
Currently in London, but available world wide.
ARTIST STATEMENT
Hannah Davis is an artist who constructs sets and creates theatrical scenes for her photographic work that delves into human emotions, personal experiences, and her own life journey. The artworks include symbolic representations of internalised negativity, feelings of confinement, whimsical scenes of cloud-picking, and depictions of longing for adventure.
Since 2011 Set building and photography has always served as a way to escape low self- esteem and low feelings of self worth. The work acts as a visual diary, capturing her journey through life and creating characters that enabled her to channel and escape feelings and situations she encountered, that she now has a better understanding of since been diagnosed with ADHD.
Hannah has used various elements and symbols in her work to depict her experiences and emotions. For instance, she employed the image of bluebells growing from her mouth to symbolise internalised negativity, created an image of someone stuck in a tank to represent her post-graduation experiences, and used a small pirate ship in a dark sea to signify the longing for adventure during lockdown.
