Saša Bezjak was born in 1971 in Maribor. She graduated from the Faculty of Education in Maribor in 1999, obtaining a degree in fine arts education under the mentorship of the sculpture professor Darko Golija. In 2001, she graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana, acquiring a degree in painting under the mentorship of professors Metka Krašovec and Dr Nadja Zgonik. She also completed her master's degree in sculpture at the Academy of Fine Arts in Ljubljana under the mentorship of the professor Lujo Vodopivec. She has been self-employed in the field of culture since 2002. In 2013, she was awarded the title of an expert assistant in special didactics by the University of Maribor. For two decades, she has been running fine arts workshops for youth and adults, assisting them as a teacher and mentor, set mainly in the rural environments of Styria (Štajerska), Prlekija and Prekmurje. Since 2013, she has been deeply engaged in the activities at the Museum of Madness in Trate, helping those who are often deprived of the experience of artistic creativity due to prejudice and negative stereotypes linked to people with disabilities.

The original and provocative Saša Bezjak, who is predominantly devoted to drawing, also expresses her creativity through painting, sculpture, embroidery and performance art. Her works have been presented at numerous group and solo exhibitions in Slovenia and abroad. Her works can be found in many Slovenian collections (Maribor Art Gallery; Pomurje Academic Centre (PAC), Murska Sobota; Carinthia Gallery of Fine Arts, Slovenj Gradec; KIBLA Multimedia Centre, Maribor; Murska Sobota Gallery) and collections abroad (Imago Mundi Luciano Benetton Collection, Italy; Fondazione Pasqualle Batista, Italy).

In 2020, she received a work grant from the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Slovenia. In addition, two of her other projects are particularly worthy of mention, namely the symposium Madness and Creativity? (2015) and the Open Studio project (2017). In 2014, the Dr Anton Trstenjak Foundation supported the publication of her monograph entitled Saša Bezjak, Works. In 2016, her book Artistic Actions by Saša Bezjak was published in the TOX collection of the KIBLA Multimedia Centre. In 2021, she again received support from the Dr Anton Trstenjak Foundation, the Slovenian Ministry of Culture and the Municipality of Gornja Radgona which allowed her to release a monograph entitled Drawings, published by the publishing house Umetniški kabinet Primož Premzl (Primož Premzl Artistic Cabinet).

Since 2020, she has been partially employed by the Public University of Ptuj. In 2021, she was awarded the title of Assistant Professor in the area of fine arts by the University of Maribor. She works with the Department of Preschool education at the Faculty of Education in Maribor as their external expert assistant.

She has been living and working in Gornja Radgona since 2006.
