Hanne Biedilae

Hanne Margaretha Biedilæ is a visual artist, painter, and ceramicist with a highly philosophical approach to her art. Her richly colored, tactile, sensuous work plays with and explores the ideas of social consciousness, the encounter with the other, and the ways that emotion mediates our relationships with ourselves and with nature. VAIMOVOIMA – female expression of power and drive among women, from her Kven cultural background, is a huge inspiration. Central in her work is female identity, where she explores the roles of women and young girls in society both in close relationships and globally. As a result, women figures appear across Hanne’s oeuvre, in her multidisciplinary praksis, where they seem to emerge from expressive landscapes.
