How Sacha Jafri Broke His Body, Then Broke the Art World

What does it mean to paint from the soul — and how can art become a vehicle for healing, connection, and legacy? In this special episode of Luca’s Insight Track, host Luca Allam sits down with Sacha Jafri, the world-renowned artist behind Journey of Humanity, the largest painting ever created on canvas, which sold for $62 million.

Sacha opens up about the physical and emotional toll of creating that masterpiece, why he rejects the traditional gallery system, and how he built a sustainable model that gives back 80% of his proceeds to charitable causes. From synesthesia to spirituality, fatherhood to philanthropy, this conversation explores the depths of his creative process — a trance-like surrender where he channels universal energy into his work.

Luca and Sasha also dive into the elitism of the art world, the crisis of mental health in children, and why he believe love, empathy, and meditation are the real tools of transformation. For Sasha, painting isn’t a profession — it’s how he connects to life itself.

Whether you’re an artist, a parent, or simply someone seeking meaning, this episode will leave you deeply inspired by the power of purpose-driven creation.
