Yasmine Nasser Diaz is a visual artist whose work frequently occupies the domestic sphere to explore the boundaries of cultural identity. Staging familial memories in nostalgic recreations of home, her work nods to both tradition and technological change and is often deftly punctured by powerful feminist and social critique. Using a variety of media from collage and fiber etching to video and immersive installation, she mines personal archives to probe the nuances of third-culture identity, often drawing upon the frictions experienced between the individual and the collective.
Yasmine’s work has been featured at the Getty Center, the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, Station Beirut in Lebanon, and the Poetry Project Space in Berlin. Her works are included in the collections of LACMA, the Arab American National Museum, and the University of California, Los Angeles.
She is the recipient of the Harpo Visual Artists Grant, the California Community Foundation Visual Artist Fellowship, and the University of Michigan Efroymson Visiting Artist Residency in Ann Arbor, MI. Yasmine lives and works in Los Angeles and is represented by Ochi Gallery, Los Angeles, CA.
