Chloë Hugo-Hamman is an artist and teacher who lives and works in Cape Town. She works across drawing, textiles, and sculpture. Her practice explores how systems of classification within mental health shape understandings of the body through textiles and clothing. Working with soft materials and fabric scraps, she creates tactile works that sit between garment, object, and body.
Through slow, repetitive processes of hand-stitching, layering, mending, stuffing, and containment, she investigates ideas of vulnerability, protection, discomfort, and transformation, considering the relationship between internal psychological experience and the social structures that influence it.
She holds a Bachelor of Architecture from the University of Cape Town, a Master of Fine Art from the University of the Witwatersrand, and a Postgraduate Certificate in Education from the University of Cape Town.
