Saša Tatić, an artist born in Bosnia, is the protagonist of the typical life of a younger-generation immigrant. Her practice reflects attempts to heal the generational gap between (un)fulfilled collective expectations and genuine concern through visual and poetic language elements. Through this fusion, she reveals the consequences of stereotypical ideas about migration experiences, illuminating hidden cultural narratives woven within the concept itself, facing constant efforts to balance understanding of the cultural contexts to which she belongs.
Saša is an active participant in the local and international art scene. She is one of the co-founders of the artistic association Fully Funded Residencies e.V, advocating for equality and inclusion. She is a member of the feminist and left-oriented organization CRVENA in Sarajevo.
She lives and works in Berlin and visits Bosnia whenever she can.
