Anja Whitemyer
Anja Whitemyer
is an emerging American contemporary artist. She is inspired by historic iconic figures and her love of today’s fashion. She uses a creative mix of mediums, merging digital design with various layers of texture found from resin, glitter, paint, and crystals. By putting a modern spin on familiar imagery, Anja’s pop art not only introduces younger generations to these important icons, but also touches on materialism and values of today’s culture. Her admiration for influential females can be seen in her past and current works, as she creates a playful spin on contemporary culture using prominent branding and bold colors. Guided by her fascination with the differences in communities, values, and needs, she has seen in her move from Germany to the U.S., she expresses this contrast in culture through her work.
