About Hanna KawanRooted in her fascination with nature, Hanna Kawan’s work reflects everything it transmits to her - what she learns from it and what she feels through it. Through this gesture, she does not seek to transport the viewer to an alternative place, but rather to invite them to connect more deeply with what already exists around them. “Nature invites us every day to take part in and witness something unique; we only need to pause and observe.”
“Mimética” is a series that further explores women and the similarities they share with nature. Everything that unites them - sensuality, wisdom, power, transformation, purity, and intuition - intertwines into a single essence. They mimic one another, merge, becoming one.

Exhibition
“Mimética”
Hannah Kawan
Hanna Kawan’s exhibition at La Trenza Gallery was titled Mimética and ran from 13 February to 20 March 2026.
From the title and the way Hanna speaks about her work, the exhibition felt deeply connected to her relationship with nature — not as something decorative or distant, but as something alive that we can learn from if we slow down enough to observe. Her practice moves between painting and ceramics, and there is a softness and attentiveness in the way she works with form, texture, and colour.
The word mimética itself suggests mimicry, blending, and becoming part of one’s surroundings — which fits beautifully with her interest in the natural world and quiet observation. The exhibition felt less about representing nature literally, and more about entering into dialogue with it.
