the world needs your heart work

we are living through oppressive times that violently disconnect us from our hearts, purpose, creativity, each other, and the world. yet, every moment holds the potential to co-create bridges towards new possibilities. rooted in a scorpio stellium, I believe transformation, renewal, and change are our birthright. with experience and purpose, i support folks in developing the work of their hearts. let’s build something beautiful together.

what do you need to make your heART come alive?

gardens of the future

a cautionary tale; transforming pollution into possibility

A colorful diorama of a cityscape with large yellow sunflowers, green leaves, and blue raindrops in the foreground, with a cloudy sky and city buildings in the background.

plastic does not disappear, it merely surrenders its shape. it fractures into microshards that now permeate the clouds, the deepest ocean trenches, and the very marrow of our bones. we are becoming as synthetic as the world we have built.

gardens of the future is a series born from the tension between devastation and transformation. these sculpted paintings are crafted entirely from philadelphia trash and other second hand materials. they serve as a chilling consumerist culture “what if?”

A colorful flyer promoting a project called 'Can We Dream a New Reality? A Garden of the Future' created by Hannah Mack. The flyer features a QR code, illustrated flowers, a trash can with trash, and decorative text, with a background of a garden with sunflowers and tulips.

Colorful paper flowers, including pink tulips and yellow leaves, are arranged in front of a black background with the words 'ICE MEETS' displayed.

can we dream a new reality? spring is coming, and the river reminds us that ICE MELTS!

what’s a zine?

zines are self-published mini magazines with a history of uplifting and centering voices that are silenced in mainstream media. they have been a way to express ideas, experiences, social and political perspectives with community.

A step-by-step cartoon guide titled "How to Fold a Mini Zine," showing different folding stages for creating a mini zine inspired by a hamburger. The instructions include folding a rectangle to form a hotdog style, then hamburger style, cutting and folding panels, creating a hole, and finally assembling the zine with a cover and pages.

transforming violence into community connection

hopeful hannah facilitates concentric circles with AVP NY-Rochester

facilitating alternatives to violence project workshops with teens and adults

the systems in power isolate and disconnect us from our hearts and each other. forgetting our sacred interconnectedness, violence permeates our communities.

alternatives to violence project guides us in growing healing communities across factors that typically divide (like race, gender, age, ability, religion, etc). we can listen, learn, grow, and heal together. i remain hopeful for what’s possible when we’re committed to each other, building networks of care, and moving through conflict in transformative ways. together, we can create beauty and connection.
