Yasmeen Abdallah (she/her/they/them) is an interdisciplinary artist, working across intersections of sculpture, textiles, painting, collage and social engagement. Drawing from the personal and the political through elements of memory, trauma, resilience, and persistence, this work takes shape in various capacities from minimal gestures to maximal installations. Yasmeen uses a variety of materials and processes to illustrate the connections between our bodies, allegories, contemporary culture and colonialism. This work is inspired by histories, social movements, space, place and personhood. Yasmeen earned Bachelor’s degrees from University of Massachusetts in Anthropology (emphasis in Historical & Collaborative Archaeology, which included field schools with New England indigenous tribal communities); and another in Studio Art with honors, including a Minor in Women’s, Gender & Sexuality Studies. Yasmeen also holds an MFA in Fine Arts with distinction from Pratt Institute. Her work as an artist, curator, writer, and educator has included roles as a visiting lecturer, grant recipient and resident at numerous institutions. Fusing together years of decolonial practice, grassroots organizing and creative reuse, Yasmeen has cultivated regenerative discussion, support for emerging artists, and fostered foundational thinking for place-making. Through this work, Yasmeen believes solid communities are sustained and can thrive through cultures of care, collectivity, and resourcefulness as they navigate shifting discourse, movements and landscapes.
