About Camilla Hanney
Working through ceramics, sculpture and installation Camilla Hanney’s practice explores themes of time, sexuality, cultural identity and the corporeal, often referencing the body in both humorous and challenging ways. By subverting traditional, genteel crafts she attempts to transgress and contemplate conventional modes of femininity, deconstructing archaic identities and rebuilding new figures from detritus of the past. By materialising the familiar in an unfamiliar context her work stimulates our ability to rethink our relationship towards objects, threatening the natural order and toying with the tensions that lie between beauty and repulsion, curiosity and discomfort, desire and disgust
 
Camilla Hanney (b. 1992) is an Irish artist based in London. She holds a Master of Fine Art from Goldsmiths University (2017-2019) and a degree in Visual Arts Practice from Dun Laoghaire Institute of Art, Design and Technology (2010-2015). Since relocating to London, her work has been featured in both solo and group exhibitions across Ireland and the UK, showcasing her practice at notable venues such as the South London Gallery (in collaboration with Bloomberg New Contemporaries), Unit 1 Gallery, Muse Gallery, Dora House, Messums, Cynthia Corbett Gallery, The Rosenfeld Gallery, and Cromwell Place Gallery.
 
Camilla received the Sarabande Foundation Studio Bursary for 2019/20 and was the runner-up for the UK Young Artist of the Year award at its inaugural ceremony held at Saatchi Gallery. She was also honored as one of the winners of the Gilbert Bayes Sculpture Award in 2020 and has received the Irish Visual Arts Bursary Award in both 2020 and 2024. Additionally, she was awarded the 2022 Newbury Trust Craft Excellence Award in collaboration with Cockpit Arts and selected for the 2022 Artist Initiated Projects with the Irish Arts Council, leading to a funded solo exhibition at Pallas Project Gallery in Dublin.
