”I saw the sky of van Gogh and started hearing music” – Désirée Saarela
The latest concept album by Finland-Swedish singer-songwriter and folk singer Désirée Saarela feels like something new and different for herself. „It started with Vincent van Gogh. I've always been fond of his paintings. I started hearing music in them, especially in the way he paints the sky and the fields. Then the incredibly versatile Tove Jansson entered – visual artist and author to the famous Moomin books.“
Create your own Otherland
„We are living in hard times right now. But in some way we should still be able to create our own Annanland, our Otherland. How can I try to grow, do I have dreams I’d wish to achieve? Yearning for something that takes us further, that is what Annanland means to me.“
Annanland also gets visual shape in an exciting collaboration with Swedish visual and screen artist Malin Skinnar, who has created digital tapestries for Saarela's live performances of all the songs on the album.
„You try to find your own way and look for new things; you also have to go back and get a hold of the person you’ve always been.“ Désirée Saarela
