Yasam Sasmazer

Yasam Sasmazer uses the human psyche, in its dark and bright side, as her main site of investigation. With her realistic sculptures, she questions in turn the notions of identity, doppelgänger, the self & the other, the individual in his social or natural environment, willingly deconstructing the clichés and cultural structures that surround these ideas. In her current works she deals with the specific relationship between the mankind and nature focusing on its contradictions and malfunctions, which lead her observations to the themes of invasion, decay, ruins, remembrance and transience of memories.
