Anna Ehrenstein
In her artistic work, Anna Ehrenstein is particularly interested in the relationship between „man“ and „object“ in the digital age: How do values change? Who has influence? What role do selfies play? Being raised between Albania and Germany, realities and reflections around migration-related material culture and diasporic narrations form a red thread in her work. Ehrenstein therefore often deals with the intersection of technology and migration. Lens based media, installation, social moments, sculpture, print or writing – Ehrenstein’s artistic practice is diverse and above all transdisciplinary.
