Tassia is a Brazilian director and photographer based in London with over 15 years experience. A social justice advocate, she is dedicated to telling stories that amplify diverse voices and champion human rights. In recognition of her commitment to DEI initiatives, she was shortlisted for the 2025 BIMA 100 Champions for Change in the People category.
With a strong background in documentary, branded and social content, her work centres on authentic human stories.
She was represented by Media Monks for four years (2022-2025) and has directed branded content for Converse, TikTok, YouTube, Google, and Under Armour - including a docu-series for Under Armour that spotlights young athletes striving to go pro.
Most recently, she released her documentary Ties (2025), which won the Audience Choice Award at the 8th Women of the Lens Film Festival, and launched We Are Not From Here, a social media channel celebrating the stories of refugees and immigrants.
She is currently developing her debut feature documentary, Nothing in Between that follows three Ukrainian dancers displaced by war turning to dance as their last form of resistance. This project has been selected for Lab Displaced Women pitch development workshop.
PHOTO
Alongside her film work, Tassia specialises in portrait and lifestyle photography, with a particular focus on underrepresented communities.
ART
Her film collaborations with visual artists inspired a passion that evolved into her own artistic practice. Working across photography, film and installation, she explores how light, colour and space shape the way we see. By playing with over and under-exposure, layering and distortion, she breaks down familiar views opening up new ways of seeing.
Since joining the Picture Berlin artist residency in 2017, Tassia’s work has been shown in group exhibitions in São Paulo, Berlin and London.
