About _

Hannah Whelan is a textile designer/artist from Dublin, Ireland.Growing up Hannah was constantly traveling between the condensed urban environment of Dublin City center and the vast terrain of Pennsylvania. Hannah spent her childhood exploring and learning from these contrasting environments which has evidently impacted and influenced her interest in nature and the range of materials she uses within her practice. Hannah now resides in New York City where she continues to push the boundaries between art and design with her ongoing project Living Room Roots. Hannah sets out to create unique and obscure handmade sculptures and installations that accommodate plants growth in the hopes of
making nature a significant element of every environment.
