Hanna Priemetzhofer uses her pseudonym Pira Tin as an expression of curiosity to engage with spaces in between, to gather the fleeting and fragmentary, to improvise, to revalue rubbish, to be in motion. Mostly, her artistic practice is collecting and interweaving the findings. She often works in a combination of images (photos, scans) and words to create spaces in the form of publications. Apart from printed works, she experiments with the actual use of “waste” as source material for her projects.

Educated as a graphic designer, her field of activity is focussed on printed matter.

For some years now, she has been moving between different places, increasingly gravitating towards south-eastern Europe.

On her blog abookabirdapirate you can explore her drifting and collecting practice.

Hanna Priemetzhofer is also part of System Jaquelinde / MS-FUSION / FUTURAMA°LAB
