An Artist Produces a Unique Project
Hannah Haworth produced a unique project entitled 'The Hunt' for a Degree Show at the Edinburgh College of Art in Scotland.
Hannah writes at her site: "I grew up in the Mangyan tribe of Mindoro Island, Philippines. After moving to my native country Scotland in 2001, I continued to practice the traditional handicrafts of the Mangyan and also learn local Scottish craft. This has focussed my interests intently on primitive cultures, and as I continue to learn more about our early relationships with the landscape, the more my work focusses on craft, ritual and our connections with other species."
Ms. Haworth begins her degree show, The Hunt, thusly: "One day she did not return from her fishing and so she was searched for, he reached her spot but it was deserted. And so he began looking for her tracks – they led directly away into the vast interior. It began to get dark as he ventured inland more and more. As night fell, he became sure that her feet were bare. They became smaller and smaller the further he tracked her. As he continued, one of her feet became wolf while the other remained human. As she was like that, he turned back."
Hannah comments about an upcoming exhibition: I have a big solo show coming up in February that I am creating a full scale (10ft) Beluga Whale for, among other ambitious works. Yarn is arriving in generous quantities from lovely sponsors ...
To further demonstrate her art and craft, there's a Mr Fox, "A sly wee companion knitted from pure tweed wool, he measures about 18 inches to the tip of his tail" on her Etsy shop as well as other foxy bits and more.

02/11 Gitana Rosa Gallery, NYC (solo)

Don't overlook her 'play' page, either.
