Bio
Alanna is an artist whose narratives are founded on ethereality and metacognition. Her immediate affinity for symbols that are universally regarded as “spiritual” has grown into a collection in which key through lines can be drawn between most combinations of images. Such themes include partnership as a reflection of self, blinding sun bursts, the full color spectrum, dreams, flight, and contradicting philosophies. She also believes strongly in the role of text in enhancing artistic cohesion, using poetic lines to help herself realize which existential themes she's been considering and why the photos relate to them.
Composing aesthetics for musicians and conducting interviews are beloved subgenres of Alanna’s practice as well.
