HANNA HEINO
An artist and interior designer from Finland, Hanna is a clay sculptor and painter whose work is informed by the subtle nuances of nature, its textures and shapes.
She credits growing up in the Finnish countryside, surrounded by either snowy hills or wildflower meadows, for her appreciation of nature. ‘I love to collect branches, stones and get impressions of purity and calmness. My work reflects the constantly evolving organisms and subtle shades I sense,’ she says. ‘I find it important to work sustainably; recycle excess material, minimise water use and use local resources.’
Hanna worked in interior design, furniture design and residential construction for 15 years before she established her studio in 2019; since then, she’s devoted herself to her art. It’s the fact that she straddles these disciplines that gives her work a creative edge: Hanna has a desire to blend interiors and art as one entity and we salute that goal. @hanna_heino
