Anna works with light, sculpture, and co-creative installations. The idea that the physical body is marvelous, guides her experimental practice. Her studio process fuses ancient craft traditions and contemporary technology. Anna begins by cutting bright wool fabric into intuitive shapes by hand. Some retain their soft textile materiality, while she transforms others into bronze or glass through a reimagined lost-wax process. Anna uses her camera to create photographs of these sculptures that blur the boundaries of time, material expectations, and scale. Photographic lens probes the interplay of light and matter. She reintroduces the sculptures back into volumetric existence via projected images. The suspended photographs merge with the moving bodies. They cast new shadows and change the visual landscape in response to each other. The light vibrates between body and object, and unflattens the physical sense of the material body in space. Observation turns to participation through simple presence and unscripted movement. Light suffuses brief, unexpected encounters with ourselves and others. Direct interaction and playful discovery hint at possibility of pleasure in full body engagement
​
- perhaps the most important element of her work.
