Sadie (known as Sandy Loaf) is a self-taught multidisciplinary artist from Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania. After exploring traditional methods of painting, Sadie founded Imaginary Girlfriends (Formerly Three Pigs Vintage) in 2012 which led her to creating hand painted wearables and costumes, and constructing sets, photoshoots, and performances that showcased her paintings. Since then she has played with various ways of contorting the human form, whether that’s through performance pieces, masks, or sculptures of various creatures.
Sadie begain persuing filmmaking in 2024 and installations to build out worlds that combine her different mediums into one experience. Currently, she is working on a triology film series which recently premiered under the name ‘Smoker’s Lounge’ (2026)
