A practice shaped by moments, memory, and light.

Anna Révész is an emerging artist and digital media practitioner working between Kaurna/Adelaide and Japan. Her practice traces the intersections of memory, place, and quiet reflection through photography, drawing, installation, and digital storytelling.

She holds a Bachelor of Creative Arts (Visual Arts) from Flinders University and is currently completing a Bachelor of Digital Media, with a focus on visual communication, UX/UI, web design, and digital storytelling. In 2025, Révész was awarded a New Colombo Plan Scholarship, supporting 19 months of study, language training, and cultural exchange in Japan. This cross-cultural experience continues to shape her growing interest in creative engagement across the GLAM (galleries, libraries, archives, and museums) sector.

Révész moves fluidly between analogue and digital processes, exploring how memory is constructed, fragmented, and held across time and environment. Her work often takes a cross-disciplinary form, inviting slow, sensory encounters and thoughtful engagement with place.

Recent exhibitions include Fathom (2024), developed during a residency at Sauerbier House in Port Noarlunga; Light Traces (2023) at Studio Kura in Itoshima, Japan; Divine Machina at Praxis Artspace in Adelaide; and Architecture of Memory at Linden New Art in Melbourne. Through these works, Révész offers contemplative spaces where memory and presence unfold across shifting cultural and temporal landscapes.
