Anna Arendt

Anna Arendt is a photographer and visual artist whose work explores memory, silence, loss, and the invisible links between personal history and larger events. Her photographs often move between personal, historical, and symbolic worlds, using black-and-white images to capture places where the past and present meet. Forests, ruins, birth, death, and animals appear in her work as signs of the emotional landscapes we all carry within us.

Anna graduated with a degree in Fine Arts and Set Design from the Kunsthochschule Berlin Weissensee. She then received a one-year grant from the DAAD and studied photography at the School of Visual Arts in New York. For 15 years, she worked as a set and costume designer for opera, drama, and puppet theater, collaborating with directors at theaters across Germany and Switzerland.

In recent years, photography has become the center of Anna’s creative life. She continues to develop long-term projects that reflect her search for meaning in places marked by beauty, pain, and the mysteries of time. Alongside her artistic work, she also works with disabled people in an art workshop, sharing the joy of creative expression. Anna lives and works in Berlin. (Website)
