"I am an observer and a wanderer, who likes to explore the city and village streets, narrow lanes, and unknown paths, mostly without anything specific in mind. My aim is to find something interesting in an ordinary place. I shoot whatever catches my attention. It has less to do with how things look, but much more with the way I see them".
Anna Wacker, an accomplished and visionary photographer, specializes in architecture, fine art, and B&W imagery. With a passion for bold compositions and intricate details, she transforms geometric subjects into captivating visual stories, offering viewers a fresh perspective and a renewed appreciation for the world around them.

Anna Wacker is represented by Influx Gallery, Notting Hill - London and bilderwerk Hamburg. A wide range of her works is also available as canvas and fine art prints through distinguished partners.
