About

BIO

Anuk Rocha, born in west Germany, is a Bosnian painter who lives and works in France. Her work has been exhibited by Blue Shop Cottage (UK), Soho Revue (UK), Galerie Kokanas (France) and Felt Collections (UK), amongst others, and published in Munchies magazine. 

 

Themes of ethnicity and alienation are recurrent in Anuk’s work. Spanning civilisations and styles from 19th century travelling circuses to the Nabis art mouvement, Anuk creates a drag language of recognizable symbols and characters pulled from fringe society and outsider culture. She blends dream and reality; warping perspectives and logic into her own mythology. Her painting practice involves constructing depth and dimension through the layering and scraping down of materials, collaging and mixing different media. Raw textures and expressive brushstrokes evoke the feeling of painterly freedom and liveliness.
