Anneke Bloema

For my collages I mainly use photographs I have taken myself. In these works, animals represent human characteristics, dreams and idiosyncrasies. The animals I have portrayed in my 20-year career as a photographer tell their stories in surreal collages. They live in landscapes I have photographed over the years.
