Caroline Hanna

The influences for my sculptures are drawn from my experiences in rural environments. Originally from regional Central Coast NSW, I spent many years overseas in a rural environment and returned to a small farm in Bethanga, Victoria. The adventures and people I have met living in these areas are reflected in my artistic practice.



My sculptures are inspired by natural landscapes and an intrigue with discarded and decaying things that have been overlooked or objects in op shops and markets; treasures that have been abandoned. I see a story, pleasing shape, or a decorative texture in them. I like to bring them back to life in another form to view with fresh eyes to create lyrical and elusive figurative works, which create a small sketch of women, women’s work and women's humour.
