Working method

Hannah Külling works autobiographically, installatively and performatively, since 1985 she has been realizing works outdoors and indoors. In her artistic work she relates her own experiences to historical, political and social events of the present and deals with topics that go beyond personal experiences and thoughts, these touch universal experiences, such as the relationship with the father, feminism or sexual liberation . In works like Erotic club soon (1999) or In Public Interest (1998), she uses public space as a stage on which a field of tension between reality and fiction emerges. Since 2002, works have been created that can be assigned to Appropriation Art , in The Bride Unveils the Bachelors and Considering its Form, even (2005), she refers to the large glass by Marcel Duchamp , for which she received the CHF 30,000.00 in 2005. received the main prize of the Aeschlimann-Corti grant. In Ophélia (2007) she refers to the work Ophelia by John Everett Millais and in Koan Vallaton to the work Olympia by Édouard Manet . At the vernissage of the international themed exhibition Aurum 2008 in the CentrePasquArt, Biel, she appeared for the first time as a performer with The Deception .
