Sara Perovic
BIO
Sara Perovic’s photography is driven by her interests in perception of space, abstraction, repetitiveness and feeling of self.
Her body of work focuses on textures (Palmeral, 2017), depicts the invisible (Bura, 2015), and shows nature’s fragility with ethereal photos (I was there, 2015). Her latest project ( My fathers legs, 2020) is mix of concept and emotion, stretching the boundries between conceptual art and art-as-therapy.
In 2020 her book ‘My Father’s Legs’ was shortlisted for Les Recontres d’Arles Prix du Livre d’Auteur and Aperture/Paris Photo First Book Award.
Among several solo and group shows, she founded and curated the fanzine aTree, promoting young photographers (available at MoMa Library New York).
Sara Perovic currently works as a photographer and architect in Berlin.
