Hanna Hansdotter (Born 1984)

Hanna Hansdotter, born in Lund, has emerged as one of the most talked-about glass artists of our time. She works both from her own studio in Småland and for Kosta Boda. She has participated in various exhibitions, including Richard Heller Gallery (LA), Galleri Hantverket, and The Glassery in Stockholm. Her exhibition "Avtryck" at Konstfack in 2017 marked the beginning of a new expressive visual language. Her pursuit of creating ornamental and tactile patterns in glass started here, and she has since created a series called "Fading Prints" with sculptural glass objects that have made a significant impact. "Fading Prints" is a series of glass sculptures that move between the ornamental and the abstract, where the technique is a reinterpretation of blown glass, with the objects expanding between individually shaped iron grids. She was named the Rising Star of the Year at the Elle Decoration Design Award 2018. Hanna Hansdotter is represented in the collections of Nationalmuseum in Stockholm.
