My Saved Products
Hannah Lees’ work investigates ideas of the cycles of constancy and mortality; the sense that things come to an end and the potential for new beginnings. This constancy, be it in religion or in organic matter, is visible in her practice through her attempts to make sense of and recognise traces of life. Lees works fluidly across different media, querying the substance of materials, science, religion and history, often presenting traces of processes and organic matter.
