Hannah Parrett, I Do Not Always Understand, But I Feel Desire
Hannah Parrett’s work pulls from the emotional and psychological experience of place, specifically the scale shift cadence between landscape, architecture, and domestic space. Combining found objects with carved wood, insulation foam, and painted materials, she reanimates objects that describe embodied moments of looking, questioning when materials are perceived as being alive, and dead. She is an artist and educator based out of Cincinnati, and co-founded Dream Clinic Project Space, an artist-run gallery and studio space in Columbus. Her work has been exhibited locally and nationally and she has had several artist residencies. In 2025, she was named the recipient of an Ohio Arts Individual Excellence Grant.
