Anna's work explores the links between spaces, blurring the edges between art and architecture and disrupting how people experience the spaces that they occupy through a continuing exploration of the physical and mental links between them. Her work is influenced by the theories of Minimalism, phenomenology and its influence on contemporary art combining aspects of architecture, personal space and definitions of space through words, drawings, sculpture, photography and video.

Anna Hennings is currently studying with ArtyBird towards her City & Guilds 7823 Artist in Residence qualification.
