Bandi Sasha (b. 1989) lives and works in Cluj-Napoca, Romania. Working with trauma, he always finds himself searching for it, although it has never been his destination. He explores the land of the outsider and of the outcast. He oscillates between brutality and sensitivity, and his works are an extension of the mediation between these two extremes. He usually illustrates dark themes and anxieties, dark and repressed thoughts: the images he produces are the result of journeys full of suffering and irony. In addition to his artistic practice, he is also the co-founder of Grota ArtCrypt, a space that was born in the basement of his parent's home, between 2013-2015, as a form of artistic solidarity and a reaction to the lack of support towards the contemporary art scene in his region.
