Sacha Jafri (1977) is a contemporary British artist who lives and works in Dubai. Known for his work "The Journey of Humanity", a 17,000 square feet painting, equivalent of four NBA basketball courts.

Jafri grew up in the U.K. and attended Eton College, in 2000 he completed his MA degree in Fine Art at Oxford University. An artist that works between abstraction and figuration, Jafri often collaborates with charitable projects to raise funds for heartfelt concerns.
