About the work
A recurring motif in Gabi Hamm's work is people in everyday situations, such as these two girls tying up their hair. The paintings by the Frankfurt-based artist seem familiar and tell of stories from daily life. The scene captured here traces the process of tying a ponytail. The depiction of two people performing the same activity at different times serves to focus attention on the act of hairstyling and its associated movements.
