Sara Fattahi is a 25-year-old visual artist who specializes in photography and filmmaking, based in Rotterdam, Netherlands.

Currently, she is pursuing a master's degree in "Media Design: Lens-Based" at Piet Zwart Institute. Sara's projects heavily focus on social justice, activism, and feminism. Her documentaries and photography are not only visually compelling but also carry significant meaning and impact. She is a visionary who is always seeking to push the boundaries of storytelling and explore new methods of self-expression. This is why she is currently working on an abstract project that differs from her previous works. Recently, she completed her first short film entitled "Silence."
