Erika Hanneson

Erika Hanneson is an artist who not only allows people to touch her art, she encourages it. Erika specializes in ceramic art forms evocative of the nature around us. She uses a variety of unique surface techniques and alternative firing methods to reimagine everything from shells to pods, seeds to trees, flowers to vines. Through scale, shape and especially texture, her work is an imitation, but not a duplication, of the world around us.

Erika received her BFA from the School of Art at the University of Manitoba. She currently maintains a private studio in Gimli, Manitoba and works in the Education department at the Winnipeg Art Gallery.
