Hanako Muller – Family Sleeping

‘Family Sleeping’ is an evolving body of work that gently considers the role photographs play in memory consolidation and our understanding of familial relationships. Using images from my family archive, I merge my own work within these moments as a way to explore how our individual timelines, experiences and lives can begin to morph and overlap when we are provided with visual reminders that bear a sense of familiarity. Finding echoes within intergenerational imagery, I look for comfort in photography’s ability to disrupt our linear perception of time and blur the distance between lives.’ Hanako Muller

Hanako Muller is an emerging artist living on unceded Wurundjeri land. Her work explores themes of connection and identity with personal reflections on adolescence, queerness and memory. Using photography as a process to piece together stories and relationships, Hanako considers the ways in which we are shaped by the people and spaces that surround us.
