Hannah Toticki
-
OverviewHannah Toticki (b. 1984) works on subjects such as the modern day’s relationship to work, productivity and technological development, and how it influences our relationship to bodies, to sleeppatterns and to nature. Though her themes are serious, her approach is often humoristic. With inspiration from fashion and theater, Toticki twists and turns everyday-like objects so that they can effectively protect us from our own effectivity. In her aesthetic world work and consumption is an infinite burden, and the body and its clothing is merely functional. Toticki playfully alternates between sculpture, installations, garments and performances. Her oeuvre consists, for instance, of an embroidered sleepy eye in colorful pearls, a blue plastic swimsuit with webbed fingers, and glasses and gloves that protect the user from smartphones, by creating a gap for much needed rest and presence.Hannah Toticki graduated from the Royal Danish Academy of Fine Arts in 2016. Since then, she has exhibited both nationally and internationally at Kunstforeningen GL STRAND (2016), Overgaden -- Institute of Contemporary Art (2018), Rønnebæksholm Kunstmuseum (2021), Kunsten Museum of Modern Art (2021), RIBOCA Riga International Biennial of Contemporary Art (2018), KW Institute for Contemporary Art in Berlin (2019), Central Museum / Impakt, Utrecht (2021) and MOCAD Museum of Modern Art Detroit (2021). Toticki is a recipient of the Astrid Noack's Scholarship, the StartPoint Prize at the National Gallery in Prague (2016), and the Anne Marie Carl-Nielsen Scholarship Talent Prize (2018).
