SARA JEGEMAN / JEGENAUER
Growing up in Småland, Sweden, I adored films by Fellini. Putting Anita Ekberg in Fontana di Trevi made such an impact on me. After finishing school I left as soon as I could for Rome. I lived for the nights and I met a mentor in painting, Alberto Parres , and somehow I always went to see art films during the day at the locally famous cinema "Gli Azzurri Scipioni", to learn better Italian I thought, but instead I learnt a lot about film making.
When I came back to Sweden I left some of my artistic ambitions behind, and I went into law and became a Master of Law in 2002. I worked for private businesses and law firms and I showed talent for crisis management and security. I ended up in one of the most action filled places to be in; as a policymaker for cyber security.
Marriage took me to Switzerland, and I had to change everything in my life. I started to do art again, and since I have a keen eye for courage and authenticity, I started to make film portraits of brave personalities, preferably within the arts.
