ANJA AXELSSON

Anja Axelsson is a Scandinavian lens-based artist with a background in scenography, exhibition design and photography. Drawing on the mysterious and the theatrical, she weaves her own photographs and historical imagery into layered, dimensional worlds. Her work often explores photography as object. She loves to interrupt the flat photographic surface, allowing the image to become a space to enter.

 

Her imagery lends itself naturally to the printed page. She creates original cover art for authors and publishers, with ready-made covers available to license through Arcangel, a selective international image library supplying cover art to leading publishers, and other outlets. A collection of her large botanical images is available as art prints or for licensing through VAST  or directly through this website.
