Yasmine Amal is a self-taught artist based between Casablanca and Berlin. Her work traces the lines between inner and outer transformation, exploring how our inner spiritual being is reflected by the natural and living world. It inhabits an elemental, metaphysical space shaped by bold colours and rhythmic patterns.
Informed by theosophical thought rooted in Sufi belief, she understands abstract symbolism and colours as eternal natural languages of the universe, capable of enabling a dialogue between inner and outer worlds. She sees this dialogue as a means of transformation, reaching dimensions of our being that are often overwhelmed by information overload.
Her intuition-based approach channels sensuality and spirituality, inviting viewers into a playground for imagination, which she understands as a way of communicating with the divine; and our future. Drawing on Islamic thought and Indigenous narratives, she explores ways of imagining futures beyond the Anthropocene while remaining connected to her roots.
Her compositions dissolve, merge, redefine borders between the individual and the collective, nature and human, spirituality and logic. Combining oil pastels, pigments from Morocco and acrylics, she engages with layered and sometimes conflicting truths.
