ABOUT HANNAH HALLERMANN

In her multifaceted approach, Berlin-based sculptor and conceptual artist Hannah Hallermann (HAHA) combines essential forms with complex social issues. She creates tools for transformation, using paradox as fuel. Her sculptures, installations,  and performances open up possible courses of action—allowing for vulnerability, resilience and new forms of social interaction. Her works hold contradictions rather than resolve them: tension and release, vulnerability and resilience, rupture and repair.

Her new solo exhibition SEWING opens at the Miettinen Collection during Berlin Art Week 2026. Transforming the bow and arrow from a weapon into a tool for mending. Her work is currently on view at the 7th Skulpturen-Triennale Bingen. Further exhibitions in 2026 include UNRUHE at MaHalla Berlin, Tell Me Where Home Is at Kunstmuseum Wolfsburg and Baggage Claim in Mexico City. Recent solo exhibitions include ADJUSTING at Sexauer Galerie, Berlin, and In Between Beyond at kjubh Kunstverein, Cologne.

Hallermann studied at Villa Arson in Nice, the Academy of Media Arts Cologne and the Dresden University of Fine Arts. Her work is held in the Hoffmann Collection, the Dresden State Art Collections (SKD) and the Miettinen Collection among others.

She has received grants from the Pollock-Krasner Foundation, Stiftung Kunstfonds and the State of Berlin. Her monograph Tools and Tales for Transformation was published by Hatje Cantz in 2022.
