Arctic as a Circle

Hanna has used thick and fluid transparent green glazes to create a sense of depth in this circular plate. To accentuate this depth and the degree of relief, she made rings of clay that she piled on top of each other and then fused during firing, using a significant quantity of glaze. The idea of placing the urn in front of the plate came about when Hanna created a series of works for an exhibition inspired by the Swedish artist John Bauer (1882–1918).
