I'm Sara Ghalandari, an Iranian-Austrian artist born in 1987. My artistic passion lies in exploring human relationships within space and the reuse of materials. I obtained my Bachelor's degree in Textile Art from Tehran Art University and pursued a Master's degree in Site-Specific Art from the University of Applied Arts in Vienna.

As an artist, I draw inspiration from mythology, symbols, and the unconscious mind, and I have a worldview that centers around accepting temporality and imperfection. My ultimate goal is to create a new symbol system with broad human relevance in my artwork.

Currently, I reside in Vienna, where I work as a freelance artist. In 2022, I was honored to receive the Vanessa Preger McGillivray Award from the University of Applied Arts and the City of Vienna for my Diploma Project. Additionally, I have been awarded a Working Grant from the same institution and city for the 2022-2023 academic year to continue pursuing my artistic endeavors.
