Hannah Pratt

Hannah Pratt's Practice is based upon combining astronomical research with both the visual and performance arts by finding new ways to link the two through collaborations and partnerships with artists and scientists. I work with creative practitioners such as singers, musicians, and visual artists to create a library of creative responses to contemporary astrophysical research.

I focus on the process of scientific discovery from a historical context by looking behind the data and researching those responsible for life-changing findings.

Such areas of interest include what the stars are made of, the sounds of cosmos and the women responsible for re shaping the scientific world as we know it.

Hannah Pratt in SpaceX!

We are delighted that our artist Hannah Pratt's work has been etched onto the side panels of one of Planet’s Super Dove Satellites which was then put through weeks of assembly and testing in their San Francisco clean room and then shipped to the launch facility in Florida, USA. Currently it is hanging out at the #spacexlaunchLive launch complex and was launched on Thursday!Huge thanks to Planet Labs for this opportunity, its a bit of a dream come true!
