Based in Amsterdam (NL) since 2005 where she finished her MSc in Psychology Research cum laude at the Universiteit van Amsterdam, in her final thesis she compared the expression and experience of Anger across cultures. She has continued working and living cross-culturally ever since. Her photographs tell the story of her own life, but she takes them in the void between her and the other. In some mysterious way the images then become as personal for the other as they are for herself, and for her that´s what matters most.

In 2016 Ana was selected as one of the best Dutch emerging photographers by Gup magazine and featured in the book NEW 2016 which is available in museums and bookstores worldwide.

In 2019 Ana´s work is being featured in the book FRESH EYES - New European Photography, which will be launched this coming summer, first at the art fair PhotoBasel and later at the festival Voies Off - Arles.
