Artist statement

My latest body of work is inspired by the vessel. There is, of course, a deep and long-standing relationship between the vessel the body, the feminine, and the spiritual. Mothers become vessels, literally carrying their children within them before birth. Afterward, they carry hope, responsibility, laundry and milk. Mother’s protect the seed. They anoint. They nourish. They carry joy. They pour-out, dry-up, and refill. These vessel ideas began as sketchbook experiments; drawings, paintings and collages of a variety of vessel forms and uses. The sketchbook guided the initial composition and then handmade papers and threads were intuitively arranged to create each work. The stitched lines represent my daily pouring out and refilling, weaving and bobbing through my day, while somehow holding it all together. The stitches heal and repair just as the vessels do. The forms encourage ideas of growth through plant-life, healing through cruets, and feeding through pitchers and cups.

Artist bio

Hannah Burnworth has degrees in both art education and studio art. She has been teaching high school art in the Indiana public schools and through private workshops for the past 16 years. In addition to teaching, Burnworth loves to create all things paper. She runs a small creative business called Milk House Studio. Her collage, books and paper sculpture celebrate creativity and design, bringing together a love for texture, color, and experiences in motherhood. Her most recent solo shows were housed at Manchester University in North Manchester, IN, Wunderkammer Gallery in Fort Wayne, IN and 3rd on 3rd Gallery in Jamestown, NY. Her work has been on display as part of the Hope/Revolution and Spectrum shows through Stay At Home Gallery in Paris, TN. Her work was also recently published through Uppercase Magazine and Candy Floss Magazine. Burnworth lives in North Manchester, IN with her partner and two boys.
