Hana and Child

Nina Sanadze’s Hana and Child is an installation of clay sculptures throughout the Museum’s spaces depicting mothers with their children. Sanadze’s works offer an emotive interpretation of a single black-and-white photograph, while also referencing and subverting iconography of the Madonna and child. Known for her large-scale installations using replicas and original artefacts, Sanadze draws on the political, the familial – including her own family history in Georgia (former USSR) – and the poetic to examine peace, conflict and humanity.
