Artist Statement


As a person who identifies with "other," my perspective is outside the boundaries of the norm. In the past, my work has been informed by this, my abilities, and the relationship of the body to the external world.

But after spending most of the pandemic in the lush, green forests, listening to the birds sing while hunting moss, lichen, & mycelium, I truly believe that the answer we're looking for lies beneath our feet and under the soil in the complex system of the natural world. This regenerative spirit inspires my work & convinces me that this is our hope for the future. 


As my work evolves to include the body's relationship with the natural world, my Polyphonic Art assemblages continue to keep me busy building on that solid utilitarian nature, as I continue to look to the natural world to inspire beauty & wonder in my art.


Lu Hanna identifies as a queer, transmedia artist with (other/different) abilities whose work is process-based in myriad of mediums, driven by concept. Critical thinking and research inform the method, while the nature of the material is studied. 


Just as in the natural world adaptation is paramount to our own species’ survival. And the way in which we choose to adapt is what will carry us forward -LH
