about:
Yasmine (visual artist) endeavors to create scenes where stories can take place. These stories question life, existence, history, and future by setting up an enduring, transcendental moment in the now.
Every story, every rule, can be changed. Visually she translates this into sculptures and installations, which the body can activate by performing. Often it is the materiality of the space that will influence the performing body.
In the world that she tends to create, she crafts out of point zero. The unknown, a void in which everything is still open, undefined, and therefore possible. All at the same time. Thematically it covers ways of existing. She explores the universe and its ways, by taking an interest in philosophies, (hi)stories, and myths around the world. And of course her own imagination and ways of thinking.
