Short Stories by Anja Niemi

In her latest series, ‘Short Stories’, Anja Niemi created seven short stories containing fictional characters, objects, landscapes and interiors – all in some way connected to each other. Each story starts off in the same way, all inspired by pre-owned objects. Rhinestone lashes, a police booking sheet with fingerprints, a Russian gun holster and six 1940s dolls with loose limbs, all led to a character and a chapter in her collection of tragicomic tales. As with previous series, Anja continues her work in the same way as before, photographing, staging and acting out the characters on her own.

‘Short Stories’ will be premiered at Photo London and Offprint and is published to coincide with her exhibition at The Little Black Gallery which runs from May 26, 2016 to June 16, 2016. The book is an edition of 100 and is available exclusively from The Little Black Gallery, London. Supported by the Norwegian Embassy.
