Anna Atkins
Step into the world of Anna Atkins (1799-1871), perhaps the world's first female photographer and a pioneer of the medium. She lived an existence full of heartache and triumph, from her mother's death when Atkins was an infant to her publication of multiple photographic books as an adult. After the passing of her mother, Atkins was raised primarily by her father and grandfather, who placed an emphasis on both her emotional and intellectual growth. As a result, she spent her life surrounded by some of the greatest inventors of Victorian England during the Industrial Revolution. Despite societal gender norms of the era, which typically limited women to a life within the home, Atkins gained the respect of the scientific community with her ambitious multivolume album Photographs of British Algae: Cyanotype Impressions, now recognized as the world's first photographically illustrated book. Her cyanotypes, in addition to their scientific accuracy, added artistic beauty to her publications,

Anna
In the sleepy German countryside live the Annas, cursed to be too tall for their small town. Laughably long-limbed and gangly, their bodies refuse to conform with societal norms of delicate femininity, and the trauma of being different ripples across generations. And yet, there may be a blessing to their burden; like the mighty mountains surrounding their town, they find that there is resilience and strength to be gained from their heightened perspective. Drawn with delightful exaggeration and formal inventiveness, Anna is a tongue-in-cheek, modern-day fairy tale about being 'too big' for a narrow-minded world.
