Sandra Andrijasevic Baraci believes that art is expression of the emotion, that it is heart, soul and mind poured out to the canvas for the world to see. Through her work she tries to capture range of emotions, as well as express her nightmares and internal struggles. She focues primarily on the female figure. She believes that true beauty comes only out of hurt, pain and despair, from ones emotional lowest, when one sinks deep within themselves and conjures dreams to create.
Sandra Andrijasevic Baraci, is activly persuing her career as an artist, entering a number of art shows and contests a year, as well as being published in several publications.
Sandra's work is placed in a number of private collections worldwide.
