FILM
Tassia is a Brazilian writer, director and multidisciplinary artist based in London. A dedicated advocate for DEI values, she is committed to creating stories that are inclusive and reflective of diverse voices and experiences.
Most recently, she completed her debut feature documentary, Ties (2025), which has been selected for screening at the 8th Women of The Lens Film Festival and the 33rd African Diaspora International Film Festival, and was nominated for the Toronto International Women Film Festival and Montreal Women Film Festival.
She is currently developing a new docufiction project inspired by the true story of a Ukrainian choreographer and dancer who flees the war and rebuilds her life in London. This project has been selected for a prestigious two-month pitch development workshop featuring mentorship from acclaimed directors Peter Webber and Charlie Melville, photographer/cinematographer Elisa L. Iannacone and producer Emma Whitlock.
Her portfolio includes the short documentary Thread in Blue (2011), which received an award at the Asolo Art Film Festival; and the short fiction film Home Sweet Home (2014). She has also 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.

Alongside her film work, Tassia specialises in portrait photography, focusing on women and the LGBTQIA+ community.
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.
