Ananya Tanttu (b. 1994) is a photography and video artist based between Helsinki, her hometown, and the United Kingdom. Attending to the primal relationship between human and land is a central focus in her artistic research, as much as it is a form of personal catharsis. Her creative process oscillates between careful construction and spontaneous observation.
Self-reflective at its core, her personal work illustrates a yearning for an element of the sublime in her immediate reality. She sincerely, yet also playfully, attempts to depict a visual narrative on both metaphysical and material layers of existence. In seeking out a subjective symbolism, she creates a personal mythology of sorts. By bringing these frames into being, she aims to silently participate in the co-creation of a world which is, to her, fuller, deeper and denser.
