BIO
Ana Rocha’s style is unmistakable.
Ana Rocha (Belo Horizonte, Brazil, 1984) is an Afro-Brazilian visual artist based in Mexico City. Her work is known for its vibrant colors, expressive brushstrokes, and a contemporary aesthetic that merges her cultural roots with an experimental approach.
Her creative process navigates the boundaries between pop surrealism and figurative abstraction, resulting in dreamlike and symbolic compositions crafted through her own signature painting technique. Ana’s visual language is born from a unique sensibility, deeply connected to her personal and multicultural background.
From an early age, drawing and painting became a natural form of communication for her. As someone with dyslexia, she discovered in art a second language—one that allowed her to express complex ideas in an intuitive and authentic way.
Before fully dedicating herself to painting, Ana built a strong professional foundation in fashion design, visual merchandising, marketing, and branding. In 2019, she founded a branding agency in Mexico City, where she currently lives and works.
In recent years, she has focused her artistic practice on a steady production that explores themes of identity, culture, and perception. Her body of work continues to expand, establishing her as an emerging voice within contemporary art in Mexico.
