Hannah is a designer and artist from the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. Her work explores digital representations of neighborhood vernaculars, investigating how photography and image analysis shape collective imaginations of place. She examines the social dynamics that underpin regional systems of water, soil, and flora, seeking to integrate these insights into landscape architecture.

Hannah’s design practice engages with public-private relationships, concepts of belonging, dense plant communities, and neighborhood-scale connections. In her art, she pushes the boundaries of painting to abstract human and non-human worlds. She has exhibited her work in group shows with SHIM Art Network in New York City and Bridgeport, CT.
