ANJA NIEMI – THE BLOW – THE RIDER VOL-1

Posted on 2022-11-14

The exhibition will present her most recent bodies of work: The Blow: At first glance, The BLOW shows an unaccompanied woman, dressed in black and with a face that is always turned, driving to a solitary house in the desert. Here she trades her clothes for that of a boxer. The boxing paraphernalia builds upon the idea that each photograph is a site of mental training and introspective battle.

In The RIDER, Anja Niemi expresses her struggle in the form of a rider and her horse. The trust and the will to understand each other are essential to their mutual bond. Together they are on an open-ended journey that requires perseverance and the suspension of fear.

Opposite – Meadow at Dusk

Exhibition runs through to November 25th, 2022
