Sawa
Sawa is an Argentine artist living in Buenos Aires, specifically in Parque Patricios.
Almost 30 years ago, he began studying animation film and immersed himself in the industry from a very young age. Over time, he expanded his craft into set painting and conceptual drawing, eventually establishing himself as an art director and, later, a director.
Over the years, he founded two studios of his own. Today, he works as a freelance director, art director, and artist. Sawa is a hyperactive creature who, within his mind, tries to bring order and meaning to a world almost as strange as our industry.
