Anais Horn

Anaïs Horn’s practice creates intimate, often site-specific settings in which highly personal narratives—may they be autobiographical, explore female coming-of-age and rites of passage or reflect on the biographies of historical (female) figures—evolve into general reflections on contemporary life and how memories and (her)story/stories reverberate in objects and spaces. Her work intertwines photography, moving images and sound, text, drawing and painting with the aim of being poetic and precise at the same time. Her images take shape by exploring surfaces and objects, and they frequently unfold into spatial installations and artist‘s books (published by Meta/Books, Edition Camera Austria, DCV). Next to personal narratives she is introducing elements of illusion and mystery, trying to situate her work in a space of the in-between.

Anaïs Horn, born in Graz, AT, lives and works in Paris, FR. With a background in literature and design, she graduated from Friedl Kubelka School for Fine Art Photography, Vienna, in 2015. She has been awarded several scholarships and residencies, such as the Cité Internationale des Arts, Paris (2017–2018, 2021) or the ISCP New York City (2020, 2022). In 2022, together with Boah Kim, she founded the publishing house Drama Books, Paris. In 2023, together with her partner Eilert Asmervik,  she founded the artist-run pop-up exhibition space Cabanon in her Parisian studio.
