Art is my life’s purpose, path and destination
Hani Santana is a self taught abstract expressionist artist from Indonesia. She believes that painting is the most honest medium of communication that emerges from the deepest parts of her soul. Hani started her career as a musician and pursued being a vocalist for decades. But her life’s calling was visual art and she pursues that now with utmost sincerity. Hani's works are bold expressionist works with thick layers of paint and sharp strokes with a dominant femininity that is brought in by the soft colors that contrast the darker tones in the background. It is as if her works depict women who are brave and persistent in this world that is dominated by men.
