Gallery B welcomes back Anna Rose Soevik, a UK-born artist who's called Bethesda home for 25 years. This collection draws attention to Bethesda's notable figures and moments through history, such as Clara Barton's contributions through the Red Cross and the significant role of Bethesda's NIH during the Covid era. Anna's distinct approach to artistry – where images are simplified to their most essential shapes, paired with defining black lines – brings an unfiltered, poignant perspective to her subjects. While she's held solo exhibitions from Copenhagen, Brussels, The Hague, to New York, and boasts a win at the Brussels International Art Fair, in recent times Anna has been creating large pieces for public spaces, including six Busboys and Poets locations and large scale murals in Maryland, Virginia, and DC. Anna is a graduate in Fine Arts from Ravensbourne University London. Learn more.
