Anja is a Danish Artist with a background as a production & interior designer and a pair of practical hands with the love for carpentry. She settled in Mallorca in the summer of 2004, after having sailed around the world with her family. The Artwork of Anja has been exhibited and presented in Mallorca and Denmark.

“I am always exploring the hidden stories merging between layers of paint and weathered posters.”

“Collage is often incorporated into my work. A combination that brings to life a world of abstract and poetic inner landscapes.”
