Now on Big Red & Shiny is my audio interview with Boston artist Hannah Verlin, who sometimes makes incredibly obsessive pieces composed of millions of tiny figures, dots, and marks, and sometimes just lets ink drip from a container. Find out how she chooses the different methods she uses to make her work by listening now on Big Red & Shiny by following the link below.
Studio Sessions: Hannah Verlin on Big Red & Shiny
About Hannah: Hannah earned her BFA from the School of the Museum of Fine Arts in Boston in 2005. Her work is often based on a heavy amount of research on a certain topic, such as the collateral damage that can occur from industrial booms throughout history, or something as lighthearted as placing segments from letter correspondence between two people in the mid-1800s in a public place for people to randomly encounter them. Her projects often bring a little thought about subject or bit of information to light within the viewer’s mind, and also tend to involve some element of interactivity in their execution.
