Hanna Abrahamsson

Sweden
Statement

With an academic background in ethnology and through mediums such as photography, video and film I explore social relationships and human behaviour.

I work with ambivalence and symbols to understand us humans as part of larger societal structures and psychological phenomena and to examine how these are reflected in our everyday lives. In my work I often have a focus on power, dependency, and control and where the camera is used to put roles in new perspectives. In my recent projects I explore the relationship between child and adult and the role of the parent.

Besides that, I am also interested in the human relationship to time and the transience in life. In my works I move between the personal and the universal, between past and present, in a hybrid of the staged and the documentary.
