Shane's work is informed by a tension between his desire to express himself and the need to please an audience. "I'm caught between wanting to do something where I don't care what people think and wanting to do something that has mass appeal," he says. The line between these competing desires may seem blurred, but each of Shane's works serves as an elegant clarification of it.

Shane Hansenme, myself & i
Shane Hansen likes a strong, clean line. He has drawn constantly for as long as he can remember, but has never indulged in intricate doodles dredged up from the dark recesses of the mind. Instead, his creations spring from a world of bold colours and optimistic clarity, a pop-art invitation to a feel-good New-Zealand celebration.
