Hanna Galtat

Hanna Galtat is a visual artist and textile designer based in Finland and France. In her work, Hanna examines spatiality, materiality and perception. As a textile designer, timelessness, sustainability and respect for the distinctive qualities of the materials are central to her. She feels that textiles are a natural way for her to express stories that can be perceived with many senses.

Hanna’s cooperation with Lapuan Kankurit began with the Aalto University's PatternLab project. Designed during the project, the JUHANNUS blanket was inspired by the increasing and decreasing of the intensity of daylight before and after summer solstice, while the KAAMOS blanket depicts the daily cycle of light and darkness.
