Sarah Belikan was born in a small village in south-west Germany in the early 1990s. She came out as gay during her teenage years.

At that time, she began to express herself through her passion for art, playing in rock bands, writing stories and acting in the theater.

Her curiosity for creative (self-)discovery didn’t stop, so she began to follow her grandmother's path, when she inherited her analogue cameras. Finally pursuing her dream of living amongst other nonconformists at the age of 19, she moved to Berlin, where she still lives and works.

As a female photographer, feminist and queer woman, Sarah Belikan is determined to celebrate femininity and queerness.

She wants to teach witnessing eyes to perceive women’s bodies from a non-patriarchal view and eliminate the male gaze, which is often applied in depictions of women in arts and media.
