About
Hanna Burgers (b. 1996, Amsterdam) is a research-based artist working with photography, text, and sound. Her work revolves around existential themes of birth and death. She is dedicated to telling humane stories, particularly those considered taboo.
Growing up amidst touching stories on the start and end of life, Hanna draws inspiration from her mother's passionate work as an obstetric nurse, guiding women while giving birth. Simultaneously, her father's role in caring for individuals in a hospice, where the terminally ill spend their final moments, has influenced her perspective.
Hanna graduated in 2023 with a BA in Documentary Photography at the Royal Academy of Arts, The Hague. Since 2020 she has been creating the Balcony Podcast, in which she talks with visual artists about their thoughts on photography and society. In 2022 she started working with Laia Abril in Barcelona, whom she is currently assisting in her long-term projects. Since August 2024, Hanna has been a resident at Radio Tempo Não Pára, where she is creating her monthly morning show.
