Hannah Rowan, The Well , 2022

Hannah Rowan

The Well , 2022
hand blown glass, cast ice, steel, bentonite clay, salt
220 x 90 x 90 cm
Hannah Rowan is a British multidisciplinary artist and researcher based in London, UK. Her work explores the slippery complexities of water that draws together a liquid relationship between the human body and geological and ecological systems. She works across sculpture, installation, performance, video and sound to explore the uncertain form of materials. In The Well (Living Waters Series) a steel structure branches out to support various hand blown glass vessels, suggestive of hourglasses and alchemical apparatus. The glass vessels hold melting ice casts of geological and aquatic entities such as oyster shells, tentacles and rocks. As the ice melts, beads of condensation form on the surface of the glass and droplets will fall into a terrain of bentonite clay and salt, saturating, congealing and rusting before drying and evaporating to begin the cycle anew. The pieces evoke fragility, transience and loss in relation to bodies of water and relational ecological and geological systems.
