Artist Bio
David Hanner is a visual artist and composer whose creative journey bridges the worlds of sound and image.
David studied music in Germany and Austria, where he started his first career as a pianist, teacher, and composer of New Music.
He has been a resident of Buffalo, NY, since 2004.
His shift toward visual art began in late 2019, when he adapted his intuitive approach to the creative process to painting.
Having honed his skills in working with form, texture, and color to produce abstract works in music, he went on to do the same using various media such as acrylic, watercolor, and mixed media on paper, canvas, and wood.
He currently lives in Buffalo, NY, where he continues his artistic journey as a painter in his home studio.
Artist Statement
Listening to Color
"Between silence and sound, color and form, I look for the place where attention becomes still enough to listen—and from that stillness, to create.
My practice explores the border between landscape and internal topography. I am concerned with how color, density, and texture can convey atmospheric change, memory, and movement.
My background in music shapes how I sense rhythm and resonance on the surface, but painting allows me to touch what sound only suggests. Each piece is both a question and a response—a dance of perception that keeps me close to the mystery of creating abstract art in its various forms, including teaming up with LeGaleriste, a great company in Montreal that produces wearable art and other products.
