"I’m a huge admirer of Hannah Philomena Scheiber. She effortlessly blends tradition with pop culture, creating one-of-a-kind pieces that exude a playful sense of humor. Each work is beautifully crafted, with a touch of whimsy that makes them truly special. I’m incredibly honored to have one of Hannah's artworks displayed in my home."

Art tells stories. With every brushstroke. Every composition. Material, colour, form – art breathes life into the world. It transcends the visible, touching hearts, creating connections, and inviting you to dream. Each piece holds its own story, yet the journey begins anew when art finds its home.

Art lives many lives. Each new home deepens its meaning.

Every piece has a story.
Thrilling, inspiring,

Art Remains When the Ice Goes
For university professor and artist Hannah Philomena Scheiber, the artistic engagement with glaciers is deeply anchored in her own biography. Having grown up in Obergurgl — one of the highest and at the same time most extreme habitats in the Alps — the glacier was, from the start, a natural part of her everyday life.
This climate that is transforming the glaciers has lastingly shaped her view of the world: "Climate change has shaped my life, and in the spirit of the 'Salige Fräulein,' I wanted to use my gift — art — to draw attention to grievances and developments, while also preserving memory," Scheiber explains.

"My goal is to pursue projects that align with my values."
Ötztal artist Hannah Scheiber discusses art as a path to self-empowerment, as transformative power of nature, and as social responsibility. Originally from the Tyrolean mountain village of Obergurgl, she has catapulted herself into the international art scene. With studies in Vienna, Florence, and New York, as well as prominent exhibitions, such as
her recent solo show ‘Ultra Mare’ at the Bank Austria Kunstforum in Vienna, she is now a leading figure of a new generation of female artists. Her works are both evocative and polarising, deeply rooted in the dynamic relationship between humanity and nature.

"Hannah Philomena Scheiber inspires with her unique style."
Hannah Philomena Scheiber studied painting at the University of Applied Arts in Vienna. She spent a semester abroad in Florence and took part in an ‘Artist in Residence’ program in New York with Austrian graphic designer Stefan Sagmeister. While still a student, the Ötztal native also specialised in ceramic design, among other disciplines. Her works inspire and provoke, often sparking
strong reactions. Scheiber is seen as a pioneer of a new generation of artists revitalising the art scene. Her success is rooted in large-scale paintings and distinctive wall plates. Notably, her landscape paintings in ultramarine blue blur the line between abstraction and realism.
