Hannah Maybank
Rooted in drawing from life, her practice reimagines the still life as a living, changing entity. With pencil on paper or handmade watercolour and unvarnished metal leaf on linen, she investigates how materials reflect human interaction and the surrounding environment. Layers of graphite trace memory and experience, while occasional pairings of actual objects with prose form three-dimensional still lives that quietly gather presence, interaction, and memory—a method she calls “sofa poetry.”
Trained at the Royal College of Art, she has presented solo exhibitions at Gimpel Fils, London, and The Hatton Gallery, Newcastle. She also created a site-specific installation, Fontus’s Posie, for the Wirksworth Festival, curated by Rose Lejeune. Her first year-long public exhibition, Un-Still, is currently on view at The New Art Gallery Walsall.
Her work has appeared in major group exhibitions, including The New Forest Pavilion at Palazzo Zenobio, 53rd Venice Biennale; the Royal Academy Summer Exhibition; Say it with Flowers at White Conduit Projects, London, curated by Paul Carey-Kent and Yuji Miyake; and The Wall of Still Lives in A Tall Order! – Rochdale Art Gallery in the 1980s, curated by Alice Correia and Derek Horton.
For her first public art commission, she designed printed wallworks for the 26 quiet rooms of the new NHS Royal Sussex Hospital, Brighton. Her work is represented in collections including Touchstones Rochdale, the Isaac Newton Institute for Mathematical Sciences, University of Cambridge, The New Art Gallery Walsall, British Airways Art Collection, Standard Life Collection, and private collections internationally.
She lives and works in London.
