​
​​Lieke Anna is a storytelling artist from Breskens, a small fisherman's village in the South of the Netherlands, and is currently based in Tilburg. From here she adores to explore the world around her.
​She lives near a cute forest which makes for a quiet base from where on out she creates her conceptual photographs.

​She is a graduate of the School of Arts in Tilburg with a degree in Visual Communication and has been working as an artist  ever since.

Telling stories through imagery, Lieke Anna explores the conceptual way of creating and storytelling through her work.

​Creating from within, shining a light on the dark matters of life we tend to stay away from and evoking emotions of the viewer to show that this vulnerability is in fact a strength.
She searches for the contrast in the fragility and strength of the human.

She uses photography as a way to paint her reality into meaningful imagery.
