HANNAH MADEN | ARTIST TEACHER
I wear many hats in the visual arts world, bringing 17 years of diverse experience to my work. As a self employed art director, visual artist, and designer, I collaborate on both client based and contracted projects. My client work focuses on digital design including website and online training creation, sales funnel design, promotional content creation with experience in social media strategy, marketing and developing ad creatives, ad campaigns and artwork for both online and print media.
​
Over the years, I have worked alongside print studio technicians, photographers, marketers, educators, supported independent visual artists in studios and on location and collaborated with curators in commercial galleries and art fairs.
​
Beyond design and teaching, my passion has always been rooted in learning, growth and bringing people together through what inspires them most. As the founder of an artist network, a dedicated educator, and the co-founder of an online business community, I am committed to fostering connection and abundance through shared vision and collaboration.​
My artistic practice explores people, presence, spaces, and our connection to the environment. My research is shaped by a deep understanding of observation, awareness and embodied learning, focusing on matter with meaning, pedagogical approaches and the parallels between art and education. In addition to photography and digital manipulation, I am deeply interested in traditional processes and experimental materiality, pushing creative boundaries through discovery and hands on exploration.
