2021 Göteborgs posten, SE https://www.gp.se/kultur/kultur/recension-examensutställning-i-fotografi-hdk-valand-vanishing-points (25th April 2021) In Swedish: ”Mest anmärkningsvärda är dock de verk som anspelar på kamerans bakgrund som kolonialt maktinstrument. Scener vi har sett i exempelvis filmer framstår som medel för att hålla kvinnan i schack. Hanna Abrahamssons videoverk speglar hur den kontrollerande omsorgen som ges barn kan fortsätta att sätta avtryck i det vuxna livet. Bilbälten och korsetter snörs åt. Hennes arbete får mig att tänka på hur lätt det kan vara att förväxla våld med omtanke.”
2020 Kult magasin, SE https://www.kultmagasin.se/ord-om-ord-januari/ In Swedish: ’’Det är lite betryggande att veta att jag delar samma vardag med alla de andra ute i samhället. Allas tid slösas bort samtidigt och att livet inte pågår någon annanstans än här’’, skriver Hanna Abrahamsson i dagboksanteckningarna Förvuxen emo, förklädd till mamma och sätter fingret på något laddat och vilset, men tonen är samtidigt trösterik.
