Details
Yasmin is a director and photographer based in Minneapolis. With a background in science, Yasmin brings her research experience along with her to build relationships & understand context before creating her art. Her goal is to tell stories as authentically as possible to their essence, with integrity towards those that invite her into their lives — in the tradition of her East African oral-storytelling heritage. Yasmin recreates feelings in her imagery using the dynamic effects of light and color, while considering the lived experiences of those captured in relation to shared spaces and environments. Yasmin was described as a ‘photographer to watch’ among the Top Ten winners of LensCulture’s Critics’ Choice Awards. She is also a recipient of the Fresh Vantage Grant through the Saint Paul Neighborhood Network for her directing work.
