I am caught in the tension between the act of making a static image from the living world and the life within the lines themselves. I am tracing elements that are forever in motion: currents, flying seeds, shadows, and flight patterns. Through drawing, cutting, and stitching, I witness how the lines within landscapes hold memory: in tree lines, water levels, or cracking branches. My tracings ask who holds that memory and how it is translated through the gestures of my hands.

Hannah Taylor is a multimedia artist currently pursuing an MFA at the University of New Mexico. She works across mediums to articulate and expand our understanding of the living world by tracing elements that our bound to shift. Taylor earned her BA in Studio Art and Psychology from Grinnell College. Before moving to Albuquerque, she was living and working between Summit County, Colorado and outside of Reedsburg, Wisconsin.

Currently, her work can be seen publicly throughout Colorado as part of Coloradans and Our Shared Environment in Times of Challenge and Change Exhibition.
