Hannah Gulland (b. 1997) is an Artist, born and raised in Edinburgh, she now lives and works in Glasgow since 2019. Her practice extends from feminine values such as feeling, oneness, and the cosmos, as she explores the poetic space between paint, space and the virtual world. Her practice moves through a range of mediums including – Paint, digital software’s, and text.

Hannah studied at Edinburgh college, and then moved to Glasgow, where she has just graduated with a BA in Fine Art Painting from Glasgow School of Art. It is meaningful that Hannah was born during the turn of a millennium. On the cusp of accelerated information and LED light the millennium was a symbol of liminality, a state of transition. These themes are undercurrents in Hannah’s practice as she considers her work “a moment, projecting essence into being”.

Since 2021, her works have been exhibited in galleries and institutions including ‘Pretty Ugly’ Exhibition at Salt Space Gallery in Glasgow, ‘Stuck’ at The Pipe Factory and recent the Degree show of Glasgow School of Art.

As we close our eyes, met with silence, we form blurry dreamscapes through motions from the outer world. The creative process is an act of interior star gazing. The infinity of outer space reflects the inner depths of our being, each star, a moment gazing back at us through the twinkling eyes of unity. This is the space I look to when I paint. I blend colours, sometimes to mix music, sometimes to find silence. Switching between observer and observed. Amongst paint and pixels, I look to the space between dreaming and being.
