Bio

ANA VAZ, born in 1986 in Brasília, Brazil, is an artist, film-maker and founder of the in(ter)disciplinary collective COYOTE. Her film-poems are underpinned by experimental collages of images and sounds, discovered and produced, to reflect upon situations and contexts which are historically and geographically marked by narratives of violence and repression.
