Anna-Lena Krause is an artist, photographer, and art director working across fine art, editorial, and commercial sectors.
The formal qualities of Anna-Lena’s work reflect her parallel practice as a, sculptor and performance artist (more..). Her research rooted across numerous fields of psychology and behavioral science informs a deeply intimate and playful approach, allowing her to continually explore the possibilities of image making.
Her language is distinguished by a sense of romanticism, and a dialogue between herself, her subjects, and her collaborators - exploring the bonds connecting people in the modern world.

Selected Works
Goldwin
Goldwin 0 1 2 3 4 5 0 — Retrospective Film
The central piece of the G0 collection: a meditative film exploring love, memory, and the senses through elemental gestures and shifting landscapes. Shot across remote terrains, it traces the invisible threads that bind bodies to place and feeling to fabric. The film premiered with a live score by Yuiko Kawauchi, deepening its atmosphere of quiet intensity and embodied presence.

BOYY
Behave as an organism rather than a machine.
This ethos runs through every aspect of BOYY, from its sculptural forms to its refusal of trend-driven cycles. Founded on instinct, friction, and a deep attention to craft, the brand moves with a quiet defiance, alive, adaptive, and wholly its own. The work reflects on doubling and mirroring as both visual language and conceptual structure, allowing form to echo, split, and reappear in ways that feel tactile, intimate, and slightly uncanny.
Extraless Campaign x OK-RMReport 01
Reimagining the corporation for a new generation means embracing the idea that profit can no longer be the sole driver of business. In this expanded logic, culture, community, and ecology become essential, if often silent, partners in shaping a company’s future. To explore and embody this shift, EXTRALESS and OK-RM have merged minds in an ongoing collaboration that considers the harmonies, contrasts, and possibilities of a truly collective project.
The first output, Report 01, is a performance piece structured in three acts, each composed of three movements. These movements draw on the EXTRALESS manifesto and unfold through three central themes: Noticeably Normal, Shared Humanity, and Autonomy of the Self.
Burberry
Lola Main Campaign x Torso Solution
Locked in Lola’s orbit, the campaign film traces her from every angle, deliberately revealing the on-set process: props, tricks, and constructed moments, as integral to the storytelling. It juxtaposes functional form with spirited energy, allowing the invisible threads of production to surface in a way that feels both intimate and orchestrated. An ensemble of renowned figures, including Bella Hadid, Jourdan Dunn, Lourdes Leon, and Ella Richards, embody her captivating presence, bridging the crafted image with the living, collaborative energy behind it.
Burberry
Lola Supporting Content
Supporting content: B-roll, CCTV footage, POV perspectives, and staged “auditions” for Lola herself, extended this narrative, blurring boundaries between character, accessory, and observer while tracing the invisible threads of production and perception.
Burberry
AW 22
A dynamic visual exploration of Burberry’s Autumn/Winter collection, where the camera’s rhythmic zooms trace the intricate details of garments and the personas of their wearers. This interplay of movement and focus transforms the viewing experience into an intimate study of fashion’s textures, silhouettes, and the subtle emotional currents between fabric and body.
Burberry
Queen’s Jubilee
Created for Queen Elizabeth II’s Jubilee, this silk scarf weaves illustrated motifs drawn from ancient British woodlands, its native flora and fauna. Displayed like an artwork to be unwrapped, it invites close looking: birds representing each British nation emerge from the foliage, the robin, capercaillie, sparrowhawk, and golden eagle tracing the quiet threads between heritage, nature, and symbolic presence.
Burberry
On a rooftop, a giant puzzle assembles piece by piece, each locking into place to reveal the Burberry monogram. Shot as a single unbroken sequence, it captures the slow rhythm of construction where form emerges from fragmentation. The rooftop frames this act of becoming against the city below, turning a simple logo into a meditation.
Burberry
A series of window vignettes across Burberry stores: a cellist plays alone in a frost-lit room, a figure stands still as snow gathers around them.
Each looped moment unfolds in silence, held just at the edge of narrative. These intimate tableaux invite passersby into quiet worlds of presence and pause.
