Anna Rubingh - A Set of Sketches

The farm I call home + the base I work from

Anna is a storyteller, capturing the soul of rural life and nature through photography, writing and by seasonal cooking, inspired by her travels & the kitchen garden on her farm. Her art is rooted in the rhythms of a regenerative life close to the land, wherever she works.

'Using my camera as a sketchbook, I travel remote country lanes to tell stories of faraway tales, gathering components like pencil drawn sketches.'

My art is always sketch-like, driven by feeling, in images, words and in my cooking. I capture what I see, but more importantly, what I feel, the soul of a landscape, the natural world, the lives woven within it and the food that is shared.

I pass on the tales told at a farmhouse kitchen table and those shared by the shepherd working high in the hills with his five dogs. I tell the stories of the small farm-to-table farmers working the land in regenerative ways, and the stories of artisans passing down their skills through generations of hands-on crafts. And I tell the story of the seasons through cooking, inspired by the land.

the place I call home

My journeys always lead me back to my own farm, where images, words, and cooking come together. Growing vegetables and keeping animals flow naturally into my creative process. The rhythm of the seasons and quiet moments on the land inspire everything I do, from photography and writing to the seasonal food I cook inspired by my travels and the kitchen garden on my farm.
