Hanne Nehmar
I am an autodidact contemporary artist working with acrylic and mixed media.
Born in Stockholm, Sweden, by Danish parents and moved to Copenhagen at the age of 9. Grown up and always worked in an international environment with many nationalities, my works often show influences from many cultures.
I get my inspiration from multiple sources and impressions, being it the urge to make a statement of political trends or to contrasts and moods. Most of my works have a figurative touch, but I have experimented with several isms, e.g. abstract painting, surrealism, graphic - and am always open to challenge my curiosity.
The present series #ICANs I am working on are tributes to women and minorities from third world countries fighting for their rights. Here I use the Russian icons as inspiration to underline my message in the works.
