Hannah Blissett’s main interests revolve around social politics and video. Particularly highlighting the way in which society and relationships function behind closed doors; in the privacy of the family home and in the domestic space. She uses the medium of video in order to convey a deeper story and thorough insight into her societal narrative and commentary on the individuals she chooses to video / interview. Hannah was born in Kent, England in 1996. She has lived in both France and Switzerland, receiving an international education from 9-12 years old. This has influenced her practice as her acceptance and understanding of a wide range of ages and cultures means she is sincere when interviewing her subjects. She attended Westwood College from 13-18 years old, and went on to attend Falmouth University studying a BA (Hons) Photography degree. She graduated from Falmouth University in July 2017.
