Hannah is a stage designer and artistic director whose recent work includes a collaboration with Friedrichstadt-Palast Berlin and participation in the reimagining of Wagner’s Ring Cycle (directed by Anna Sophie Keller) during a laboratory at the Copenhagen Opera Festival. She completed her Master’s in Stage Design_Scenic Space at Technische Universität Berlin, where she showcased her multichannel video installation Strangers.
Her work focuses on the intricate relationship between sound, light, and surface, creating immersive spatial experiences that range from monumental concepts to minimalist designs. Beginning her career in gallery settings, Hannah has directed and supported numerous visual arts productions. Over time, her practice expanded into interdisciplinary and cross-disciplinary cultural and exhibition projects, consistently emphasizing the significance of spatiality in performative discourses.
Her passion for spatial design was sparked during the acousmatic-performative project Durch|Glas, realized in Berlin in April 2022 with support from Initiative Neue Musik Berlin e.V. This project deepened her commitment to both the conceptual and physical dimensions of cultural design.
