Hannah Meijer shows a world of her own, similar to a laboratory. In stories coming from her own experience she connects apparent opposites. Hard and soft, intuitive and analytical, natural or textile materials and clinical or scientific elements.
In Exbunker she doesn’t give these materials the space they seem to need. This way she brings forward ideas of imprisonment and containment.

Het Kleinste Kamertje
"One frame at a time" An archive of portraits created over five years, emerging from a practice that resists the instantaneous. Each photograph requires extended exposure time, inviting subjects into a temporal space outside the rhythm of daily life. In the stillness required by the camera, something shifts. Participants encounter their own breath, involuntary movements, the effort of holding presence. What begins as a technical constraint becomes an unexpected threshold, a pause where accelerated time momentarily suspends.
