Statement
Hanzi He's practice centres on a simple observation: when something touches a surface, it leaves behind evidence of that contact. She is drawn to traces from daily life — marks that nobody notices at the time, but that carry the weight of ordinary moments. Working through etching and drawing, her work moves between passive recording of accidental imprints and active mark-making, exploring how humble, everyday traces can preserve something of the time and touch from which they came.
