About

Yasmin Eliz Ozyilmaz, b.2001

Yasmin is a multidisciplinary artist with a background in illustration. Her work explores themes of personal growth, transformation, and the feminine aspects of her identity. Inspired by her experiences as a woman, she creates delicate, emotive imagery that reflects her evolving sense of self. Nature is a recurring motif in her practice, often intertwined with the human form as a metaphor for emotional and personal development. This symbolism allows her to express a continuous process of becoming, capturing moments of change, vulnerability, and self-discovery.

Her practice spans a variety of printmaking techniques, including screen printing, risograph printing and UV printing. Her process is shaped by experimentation with colour, texture, and figurative forms. Yasmin is particularly drawn to the tactile qualities of print and the ways in which layered imagery can convey depth, mood, and symbolic meaning.

She often leans into abstraction especially of the figurative form as a way to interpret emotions. Rather than presenting clear narratives, her work invites viewers to engage with the imagery on a personal level, drawing their own meanings from visual metaphors. Yasmin’s work continues to evolve as she explores identity through various symbolic forms.
