hannah sklar


Hannah Sklar lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.

Creating mixed media sculptures and graphite drawings, Hannah Sklar conjures meticulous, labored surfaces that meld elements of abstraction, figuration and ecology into a body of work, uneasily categorized. Visual motifs of corporal brick structures, sinewy femmes, anthropomorphic botanicals, and masonry, are seen as conversing characters in Sklar's speculative world, which aims to queer the boundaries of their body, built environment and dying earth.

Over the past year, Sklar has been drawn to illustrating flowers. They alter the familiar icon of ecological beauty and femininity into naunced portraits – conduits in which to express themes of queer desire, fortified daintyness and humorus speculation.
