My work reflects appreciation for the natural world. I see nature as the most profound and complex art form — one that I have the privilege to observe and reconnect with through my practice. Recognising parts of our shared story. Somewhere between the wild and the tender, each piece becomes an archive of connection— an ongoing collection of moments, gestures, and experiences that honour our place within the living world.

Anja (1999) is a photographer, based in Ljubljana, Slovenia. Her main interest revolves around human emotion, seeing the human form as an inseparable part of nature, especially in connection to the element of water. Growing up in the space of theatre and poetry inspired her visual language to intuitively blend the aesthetic experience with intention and the presence of her subject.
