Hannah's talks connect the dots between creative and contemplative practice in honest, dynamic and relatable ways. She talks about big subjects like connection, existence and uncertainty through the lense of specific art projects and personal experience. Her talks have been described as down to earth, relatable, and 'no BS'. Her art projects and ideas serve as bridges, offering new entry points to topics ranging from the chemical elements and prayer.
Themes in her work, books and talks: Creative and contemplative practice, Ephemerality, Studio Practice, Tools for clarity and intuition, Messy Human Life, Ambiguity, Grief and Art, Death and the living thread, Matter as a way of seeing, the Elements prior to science, Prayer prior to religion.
