"The flower Gladiolus, or sword-lily,
has always meant something special to me.
To me they represent a strong backbone and integrity,
constantly budding; upward, forward..
with surprisingly silky flowers."
"They are a tribute to my constant desire
to master the art of combining
softness and strength", Hannah concludes.In the portrait photographs of this series, Hannah has worked in layers of double exposures; fusing Sword-lily still lifes with portraits of her muse Lina Lindholm.
