Get to Know the Austin Artist:
I’m Sara Kate Hannon, an artist living in Austin, Texas. I received my BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2002.
I am interested in the multi-dimensionality of our personalities. We are taught to present ourselves pleasantly, “I’m fine, thank you,” when our inner reality may be very different. We may be calmly going about our day, but with an inner dialog of doom and destruction rearing its head every now and then, or maybe even a voice of unbridled optimism pops up. It’s with these inner voices that I am conversing with when I create. Voices that are integral to humans but society often eschews acknowledging. It seems that in art we are taught to strive to make a pretty image but I don’t want to make a pretty image. I want to exist, to see who I am.
While my drawing and paintings may seem intense at first glance, I am hoping the viewer will take a few minutes to get lost in the image and create a story only they can tell, but with which most of us can relate.
