Sara Tanasković

Sara Tanasković is a poet and visual artist whose work explores the body, memory, and the quiet, fragile moments of life. Her poetry often comes from observing small, intimate experiences, tracing vulnerability, resilience, and the ways we repair ourselves. She is interested in how patriarchal and gendered expectations shape our bodies and identities, often in ways we barely notice, and how these imposed norms follow us from childhood into adulthood. Her work quietly questions these pressures while exploring the possibility of reclaiming agency, tenderness, and self-recognition.

 

Alongside her poetry, Sara works with drawing, textiles, wax, pollen, and mixed media, turning the textures of lived experience into visual form. This approach allows her to explore memory and the body in a tactile, sensory way, creating work that speaks both visually and verbally. Her art and poetry often share the same attention to detail, finding significance in small gestures, overlooked moments, and the everyday traces of care and repair.

 

Across all her work, Sara is drawn to the quiet negotiations of vulnerability and strength, the marks of lived experience on body and mind, and the ways we communicate care, attention and presence. 

 

She has exhibited internationally and in Serbia, including the Thessaloniki Photography Center, Athens Gallery, Pavillion of Cvijeta Zuzorić, Museum of Contemporary Arts in Belgrade, the XVI International Biennale of Miniature. Her poetry collection is forthcoming.
