ABOUT

BIO & ARTIST STATEMENT
ANNA SIBYLLA is an Italian-Dutch artist with Asian roots, currently based in the Netherlands. She graduated in directing from the Italian national film school Scuola Nazionale di Cinema in Rome. Her background in film and storytelling forms the foundation of her photography work, which is set somewhere at the intersection of documentary and fine art.
Anna Sibylla's work mainly focuses on the lives and experiences of women and girls; in particular on How to Stay Tender-Hearted while coming of age, as well as amidst other moments of transition and metamorphosis.
Her ethereal portraits and still lifes are furthermore defined by the use of natural light and minimal retouching, adding to a sense of delicate intimacy. Recurring settings are old and dilapidated buildings and spaces that exist outside of time and space, imbued with nostalgia and an awareness for the impermanence of things.
