“I am living permanently in my dream, from which I make brief forays into reality.”
-Ingmar Bergman, Images: My Life in Film
Anna Brewer’s artistic practice is one of deep personal exploration stemming from her imaginative childhood and her relationship with her mother, LeeAnn Lynn Faus, who was also an artist. Brewer’s work is the manifestation of her spiritual investigation into the human soul. The above images are stills taken in various studios at different periods in Brewer’s creative journey.
