Hannah uses Art as a tool to draw people’s attention towards disused environments, highlighting their overlooked potential by inserting temporary Art in or around the vicinity. 

Environmental Collaboration piece with Artists Hannah Boyd and ClareWasserman

 In 2016 she engaged people in an environmental piece
 'Embodied Place'
https://www.facebook.com/Embodied-Place-846747788690895/ 

 After sectioning off an area of public land, she invited people to document it and see how their perceptions changed towards the place following the event. 

  

In 2017 she created an art piece called 
'Ghost Dinner Party' 
in which she invited female artists to write their idea of a  dream art project on a pure white dinner plate:
