Hidden Dimensions
Hidden Dimensions is a series of images of architecture converted into photographic sculptures. The re-imagined urban scenes invite viewers to reflect on how mundane architecture influences personal and social dimensions, directing the way we move, think, and feel.
Walls, backyards, fences and signs are the subjects of Anna's photographs. These often featureless, neglected structures, that we are surrounded by and take for granted, yet are the stage sets of our lives. Akin to abandoned theatrical props, they carry a sense of impermanence and malfunction: family houses that now provide temporary havens for strangers, misleading signs, and fences that protect from nothing. Many of these structures have lost their original function, are no longer what they seem and become a monotonous background. They evoke a feeling of disorientation and futility. Combined they create a maze, that constrain physical space and thoughts.
Anna manipulate her paper photographs to build architectural constructions that would be impossible in the real world. The folds and cuts give the images new depth, allowing us to look beyond what is seen. Balancing the edge of the factual and the possible, her work attempts to break the walls we come up against and push the limits of perception.
