Rodrigo Sassi was born in 1981 in the city of São Paulo, where he lives and works. As a teenager, he became interested in graffiti, which led him to graduate in Visual Arts from FAAP between 2001 and 2006. During this period of training and experimentation, the painting work he had been developing on the streets unfolded technically into other media, with Urban Intervention becoming his main line of thought and artistic activity.

Throughout his career, references to the urban universe began to be linked to his interest in architecture and the dynamics of everyday life, especially ways of living, forms of relationship with space, and processes of transformation and adaptation to the environment in which one lives.

His work, focused mainly on the three-dimensional, appropriates materials found on the streets where he walks, nullifies their functionalities, explores their memories, and reformulates concepts through the physical transformation of matter; a metaphor for the dynamic transformations of the city and its society.

His works have been presented at institutions such as the Museum of Modern Art of São Paulo (MAM-SP), Usina de Arte, Marcos Amaro Foundation, Banco do Brasil Cultural Center, São Paulo Cultural Center, Museum of the Republic, and Museum of Inconfidência, among others. He has completed artistic residencies at the Cité Internationale des Arts (Paris), Campo (Uruguay), Sculpture Space (New York), and MAMAM (Recife). His works are included in public and private collections, and he has permanent sculptures in public spaces in the city of São Paulo.
