About

(In English and Portuguese)

A contemporary artist, Ana Cockerill was born in Brazil, where she attained a BA (Hons) in Fine Arts during the late seventies. Posteriorly, she trained in Art Psychotherapy at Goldsmiths University of London, and obtained a Pg Dip (MA). She lives and works in London since 1987.

Her art includes works in painting, sculpture, digital design and mixed media. It may suggest sometimes an abstract narrative, with a strictelly subjective characteristic, but it can also reflect some of her personal views of reality. She likes to investigate and experiment by using a diversity of media, and one of her special interests is to merge colours, textures and forms, to observe the final result of these elements in relation to the images spontaneously created in the process.

Ana Cockerill has exhibited in the UK and abroad, and she works as a registered Art Psychotherapist within the social and health sectors. She has her studio in West London, where at present she conducts private Art Therapy/Psychotherapy sessions.

Ana Maria Cardoso Cockerill, artista contemporanea Brasileira, vive em Londres desde 1987.

Gosta de experimentar e investigar, usando tecnicas e materiais diversos, e um dos seus interesses especiais e' misturar cor, textura e forma, para observar o resultado final da mesclagem destes tres elementos em relacao a imagns que brotam espontaneamente durante o processo creativo. Sua arte inclui trabalhos em pintura, escultura, desnho digital e variada tecnica mista, e pode muitas vezes sugerir uma narrativa abstrata de carater estritamente subjetivo, refletir uma observacao pessoal de algum aspecto da realidade, ou ser inspirado por situacoes guardadas na memoria.

(Alguns dos artistas e movimentos que mais aprecia, e com cuja linha de trabalho se identifica, sao: Louise Bourgeois, Cy Twombly, Tapie' e o Art Povera, Ligia Clark e o Modernismo…)

Ana nasceu em Teofilo Otoni, MG, e mudou-se para Salvador, Ba, ainda no inicio da sua infancia. No final de 1970 conclui bacharelado em Belas Artes, na UFBA, e logo a seguir se especializa em Conservacao e Restauracao de Obras de Arte, com enfoque em pintura e escultura barroca, em curso de pos-graduacao implementado pela UFBA,Unesco e OEA. Dando continuidade neste campo de estudos, mora em Lisboa de 1985 a 1987, para completar um mestrado em Conservacao e Restauracao de Texteis. Sua trajetoria profissional em Conservacao e Restauro, inclui experiencias de trabalho no Brasil e na Europa, tendo participado em projetos desenvolvidos pelo Instituto do Patrimonio Artistico da Bahia (Salvador), Instituto Jose' de Figueiredo (Lisboa) e Hampton Court Palace (Londres).

A partir de 1990, comeca a se envolver com projetos de arte comunitaria, na Inglaterra, e a explorar conexoes entre Arte e Psicanalise, e este interesse a leva a fazer um mestrado em Arte Psicoterapia na Goldsmiths University de Londres, (2000- 2003).

Atualmente trabalha como Arte Psicoterapeuta autonoma, com registro no HPC-UK (Conselho dos Profissionais de Saude do Reino Unido), e no seu atelier, onde tambem conduz sessoes particulares de Arte Psicoterapia.
