Keenan Haagen (b. 2003) lives and works in Melbourne, Australia

 

Interested in everything creative, he has developed an extensive interest at the intersection of nature & design

​

Keenan grew up in South-East suburbs of Melbourne, where his natural curiosity and obsession for creative activities, quickly cultivated into a passion for the arts.

​

The artist's work is characterised by juxtaposing materials in foreign environments and spaces. He focuses on materials associations and perceptions, cherishing naturally occurring forms, patterns and the aesthetics of nature. 

​

Nature is the fabric of everything, it is the greatest inspiration with infinite possibilities, the perfect designer of systems and processes, the artist of the most beautiful and complex things

​

'The Fragment' — Keenan describes 'fragments' as an aspect of the world; a moment, experience or aesthetic, that he uses as a foundation for his exploration of materials & processes​​
