Artist Bio
Anissa Krajewski is an artist and art educator living in Philadelphia, PA. Anissa's work is inspired by the curiosities of what can lie on the other side of an entry way whether through portal like structures or actual doorways. Krajewski creates surreal works in hopes the viewer will create their own visual narrative of where the entryway will lead to. She enjoys using various painting materials to layer her creations including spray foam, spray paint, resin, and any form of paint she can find. Anissa graduated from The Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 2020 with her Master of Fine Arts degree. Krajewski is currently an art educator at Young Scholars Charter School and enjoys continuing her paint explorations in her spare time.
