Eeva Hannula (b.1983, Finland) graduated from the Aalto University School of Art, Design and Architecture in 2017. By intertwined archives with staged photographs and layering them with interventions led by potential errors, chance and experimentations, she creates contrasted and poetic combinations. For her artistic work is about writing, finding her own language, producing signs, the primary
meaning of something breaking and being rewritten. Writing is about surging towards unknown meanings, while images serve as a writing platform, as compact formations similar to words. In her works she pursues an unspoken area, the body’s own sign language, by mixing
abstract with figurative, making photo collages and breaking the usual form of text and combining photographs with hybrid traces. Her work was included in several group exhibitions among other Summer school, presented at in the Finnish Museum of Photography in 2013 and Foam Magazines Talents exhibition at the Rossphoto in Russia 2014. In 2016 she held a solo exhibition in Künstlerhaus Bethanien in Berlin titled The Choreography of Uncertainty. She was selected as one of the artists for Foam Talent call 2013 of Foam magazine. Her self published book Amorphous Writings that combines poetry and photography was was nominated in Mac First Book Award in 2021. She is represented by Sous les Etoiles gallery in New York. Latest exhibitions include group exhibition After All the customs will change a lot at gallery Metronom in Italy (2021) and solo exhibition These are gestures small scenes at hand at Gallery Rajatila Tampere Finland. Foam Magazine has featured her portfolio from the Amorphous Writings project ( Glyphs Text+ Image issue) with text written by Nina Strand in 2021.
