Info:
Is it an inseparable part of life to lose one’s way from time to time and then find one’s way again in other phases? Sometimes we have to take the wrong turnings to realise what really matters. These wrong turns are not defeats, but necessary steps towards growth and maturity. They are part of the search for one’s true self, for one’s own values and goals. To know, afterwards, what one wants and what one does not.

Johanna Hodler
Hi, I’m Hanna and my works are created from a single, continuous line, which I complement with acrylics, oil pastels and coloured pencils. My work centres on abstracted faces, through which I explore everyday thoughts and emotions – such as procrastination, anxieties, questions of identity, relationships or the pressure of endless to-do lists.
My paintings explore themes that concern many people, whilst opening up space for individual interpretations. I find it particularly fascinating how differently the faces depicted are perceived – depending on the viewers’ personal experiences and backgrounds.
During an extended period in Spain
,
street scenes also found their way into my work. These motifs emerged as part of my artistic and psychogeographical research into the interplay between personal identity and urban space. For me, they represent possibilities, encounters and the question of to what extent I feel connected to certain places.
