Nature itself introduced Hannah Lane her future craft. The artisan accidentally left a book of Lord of the Rings out in the rain and the paper transformation inspired her to reuse the material to create something completely new. She applied woodworking techniques to paper and the resulting magic lay the foundations of her practice. That was in 2002, today Hannah Lane is an award-winning artisan with works exhibited around the world. One of the features defining her works is eco-friendliness and devotion to recycling. “I am fascinated by the relationship between the two materials, their expansion, and contraction,” says Hannah about her enchanting and very original approach to merging paper and wood. Her objects know no boundaries and represent freedom of creative thought with a sustainable edge.
