Annie
Leppala is a photographer who was born in 1981 in Helsinki. She really
appreciates what she can do with a camera and a lot of her work is based in the
present. She also likes to work with freezing time and seizing the moment,
which is reflected through her photographs. I find her photography to be very
elegant and subtle. She photographs a lot of landscapes and forestry type
settings but I’ve also realized that she herself is in the majority of her
photos. I think she looks nicely presented in her photos due to her bright hair
and very pale completion, I find her interesting. How ever you never see her
face in these you see the back of her head but even if she’s facing the camera
she is covered with hair as if she is hiding from the camera or something else
in the room.
Leppala
currently has an exhibition going on in London. It is in the Purdy Hicks
Gallery and I recommend taking the tube to get there as the easiest route. If
you are interested in photography I would advise to go to this exhibition
because Lepalla is a new up and coming photographer and you may be able to get
some advice or inspiration from her work and the images themselves are just so
beautiful so this show in my eyes is a must see. The venue and exhibition
details are below.
