Max Yasmeen is a British-Kashmiri conceptual artist based between London and Sussex, UK. Her practice explores the movement of people through thought and the relationship between technology and spirituality. Working across installation, she incorporates technology, textiles, and sculpture to examine transitions between digital and physical space, blending the traditional and contemporary.
Yasmeen holds a BFA from Goldsmiths, University of London, and completed the alternative art program at School of the Damned. She is a member of the Working Class Creatives Database and has exhibited widely across the UK.
Much of her recent work is site-specific, immersive and community-focused. Working through themes of imports/exports, Britishness, multiculturalism, immigration, working class identity and myths.
She is currently developing a large-scale public conceptual artwork in the London Borough of Croydon, with information available at Croydon Museum and Turf Projects.
