She received her BFA from Emily Carr Institute of Art and Design in 2005 in Vancouver, Canada. Kocsis' work has been included in group and solo exhibitions internationally, including the Geneva Art Biennale; the Balassi Institute, Finland; Szeged University, Hungary; Harcourt House, Edmonton; Burnaby Art Gallery, Burnaby; and the Grunt Gallery, Vancouver, Canada. In 2010, she spent 5 months creating in Paris and Berlin, and she is the recipient of a number of grants and awards. Her most recent series, "Contingent Bodies", was published in a full colour catalogue by the Grunt Gallery. Kocsis' work makes painting its subject and its medium. She is interested in unfolding the implications of the structural and theoretical formations within the painting process by challenging the expectations of conventional abstraction and figuration. She lives and works between Montreal and Vancouver.
