About Sead Kazanxhiu
Born in Baltëz, Fier, in 1987, he graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Tirana. His artistic quest focuses on themes related to his being a Roma artist and to Roma concerns. His work provokes and challenges the traditional perception of Roma population in Albania and abroad, probing into some of the paradoxes of his country. Drawing inspiration only from entities close to him or events of his everyday life, he uses art as a reaction to the surroundings. He currently lives and works in Tirana.
