Hannah Simpson
Hannah Simpson Studio, established in 2020, serves as a creative haven for Hannah Simpson, providing an escape from the demands of everyday life. For Hannah, creativity has long been a therapeutic outlet, allowing her to navigate and control her emotions.
Central to the studio's creations are the 'Monster' creatures that Hannah conceptualises. These creatures, designed with vibrant patterns and unique expressions, serve as tangible representations of difficult thoughts and negative emotions, transforming them into approachable and humorous entities. Remarkably, these characters not only bring solace to Hannah but also spread joy to others.
Motivated by the positive impact of her Monster creations, Hannah expanded her creative endeavours to include homeware items, particularly lamps and vases. The rationale behind this extension is rooted in the belief that surrounding oneself with colorful and joyful shapes can have profound effects on mental health. Through her homeware items, Hannah aims to contribute to creating uplifting and positive living spaces.
Ceramics form the core of Hannah Simpson Studio's artistic output. Working with ceramics is described as a challenging and rewarding experience, emphasising the delicate balance between control and
unpredictability. The intricate and time-consuming nature of each stage in the ceramic process, often spanning weeks for project completion, tests the artist's patience and expectations. Despite the challenges, working with ceramics fosters resilience, patience, and a methodical approach.
In essence, Hannah Simpson Studio is not merely a ceramics studio but a testament to the transformative power of creativity and the therapeutic benefits of artistic expression. Through her unique approach to ceramics and the creation of Monster-inspired homeware, Hannah Simpson aims to bring joy, resilience, and a sense of control to both herself and those who interact with her creations.
