Hannah Todt

Hannah Todt (1993, Austria) is a multidisciplinary artist working across performance, music, sculpture and installation. Her artistic research is based on the interest in exploring the transition from object to function, akin to the alchemical shift when matter transforms from one state to another, referring to the validity and mutability of meaning and existing orders. With a playful approach, she draws inspiration from sound as a collective practice, organology, and contemporary perspectives from cultural anthropology and socio-economics.

During her time at MORPHO, Hannah will explore the musicality of language, experimenting with the voice as a tool detached from speech and with instruments that traditionally replace the spoken word.

Hannah Todt is part of the Vienna-based artist collective conte potuto, which creates performative installations that serve as temporary spaces for interaction. She composes and performs sound in collaboration with artists including Abigail Aleksander, Mary Szydlowska and maria mercedes. Associated with musical projects such as AUTOR and Gomme, she has toured the US and Europe.

Hannah studied Fine Arts in Brussels, Vienna and Paris and graduated from ENSAV La Cambre (BE) and from the University of Applied Arts Vienna (AT). In 2023, she was awarded research residencies at Q-o2 (BE) and Est-Nord-Est (CA) as well as the Prix des Amis de La Cambre (BE).
