Anna Silveira is a visual artist and photographer based in São Paulo, Brazil.

She holds a degree in Literature from the University of São Paulo (USP) and a postgraduate degree in Photography from Fundação Armando Alvares Penteado (FAAP). Her practice explores photography as a language through which memory, presence, and identity are negotiated.

Between 2012 and 2016, she worked at Marinho Comércio, the Brazilian authorized representative of Leica, Ilford, Zeiss, Nik Software, and Lomography. During this period, she held positions in communications, customer relations, and commercial management, becoming General Manager of Leica Gallery São Paulo in 2017. In this role, she collaborated closely with photographers including Mary Ellen Mark, Ralph Gibson, Michael Grecco, Alain Laboile, Andy Summers, Pedro Martinelli, and German Lorca, among others.

She later joined Great Studio, an international production company specializing in advertising, animation, and post-production, where she worked in cinematography on projects developed for Brazilian and international agencies. This experience further deepened her research into image construction, visual narrative, and the relationship between photography and cinematic language.

She also works as a curator on visual arts projects, collaborating with the Norberto Bobbio Institute in the development of curatorial proposals for public cultural grants.

Alongside her artistic practice, she teaches courses in analog photography and digital workflow, operates a Fine Art printing studio, and mentors independent photographic projects, collaborating with photographers, galleries, institutions, and collectors.
