Hannah de Groot

Artist / Writer / Thinker / Talker
Lines / closed circuit
The day I discovered that a line is drawing itself, my whole perspective on creating shifted. I'm a servant now. A follower. I go where the line takes me. The line will always come back to where it started, to make a closed circuit.
​
Personal words / multi-personal stories
​Everything I write is highly personal. But once it is on the wall, once it is read by someone else, it’s away from me. People don’t read my story. They read their own. 
Essentialism / the purest form
Someone asked me once to which art movement I would count myself. Essentialism, I replied. Always in search of the essence, the driving force, the purest form. I do this in my artworks, and I do this for others too. 

 I'm a servant now. A follower. I go where the line takes me.”
