About

VASA, aka Anthony Saucedo (b. 1996) is a contemporary artist from the Northern San Diego area. Working both in the studio and the streets, his art comes in a span of forms ranging from paintings and sculpture, to digital and graphic design. Within his work he aims to illustrate life in America, the juxtaposition of life and death, and his own ineffable feelings of anxiety.
VASA received an Associates Degree in Studio Art from Palomar College and graduated from the California State University of San Marcos with a degree in Art, Media, and Design.
