Josephine Coy has been a practicing artist since 1984 and has exhibited both in England, Wales and abroad. She received her Masters in Fine Art from the University of Wales Institute Cardiff. While living in Wales she was elected a member of the '56 Group, the foremost artists group in Wales which was founded in 1956. With the support of the Welsh Arts Council she has spent time in India and the South of France. More recently with the support of the British Council she returned to Brazil to exhibit at the Gallery of the University of Brasilia. From her training as a fine artist her work has encompassed painting, drawing and progressions from these forms to work 'off the wall' which also involved writing as an expressive and constructive form.
In her most recent work her ideas are conveyed through her commitment to lens based media in the form of digital photographs and video dealing with metaphors for transience and liminality.
