Haack’s practice centers on fictional portraits and psychologically charged figurative scenes. Working primarily in oil on cotton or linen, she constructs images that move between realism and the uncanny. Her characters seem suspended in a moment of tension or transformation, occupying a space that blends interior life, memory, and symbolic gesture. Themes of identity, vulnerability, adolescence, and the thresholds between self and environment recur throughout her work. Lighting and composition often draw from cinema, creating tableaux that feel intimate, unsettling, and emotionally charged.
