About the Artist

Anna Afonina (b. Tolyatti, 1989) studied at the Repin State academic Institute of painting, sculpture and architecture, St. Petersburg. Currently studies at the Rodchenko Moscow School of Photography and Multimedia.

The artist creates pictorial and graphic series around hypertrophied and at the same time generalized images from the family photo archive. Exploring the space of memory (both personal and collective, generational), she experiments with new media, resulting in original works of sound art, video art and interactive projects based on gaming platforms.

Afonina’s personal project “I've already been here” (MYTH Gallery, St. Petersburg, 2020) is based on the feeling of frustration that arises when the global world collides with the private territory. The artist reflects on the essence of the family and on the value of the acquired experience, ironically comprehending the experience of family traumatic relationships.
