In every photograph Anne stages a symbolic installation called a TimeShrine to honor and capture the vanishing beauty of the planet. Anne always carries two objects on location that are essential to her TimeShrines; an hourglass, which is the most ancient way of calculating time and a symbol of fleeting existence, as well as a skull (or vanity as it used to be called). The skull is a mystical object which reminds us that as mortals, we have choices to make. We can choose between a constructive and positive life, or a superficial, vain life; hence the symbolism of the vanity. Anne creates these unique shrines with her hourglass and vanity to ensure we understand the decisions we are faced with for the world of tomorrow. To complete each TimeShrine, Anne incorporates organic elements and found objects on location, each carefully collected for their special meaning.
