Picture
Yazmin Dababneh is an independent, Detroit-based artist who focuses on creating sculptural work as well as immersive and interactive experiences. She has developed a material language by constantly combining and remixing various processes to work through visualizing metaphysical concepts and quantum theories such as the nature of reality and quantum entanglement. Originally headed down a path to becoming a trauma surgeon, Dababneh eventually shifted into a more creative route and received a BFA in Craft and Material Studies with a concentration in Glass from the College for Creative Studies in Detroit, Michigan. She has since dedicated her life to her practice, taking advantage of any and all creative opportunities that come her way— producing local permanent installations as well as exhibiting work internationally. Dababneh is currently working on creating a space to house and respond to her sculptures and installations— a place she calls "YayaLand."

"Driven by my fascination of quantum physics and metaphysics, my work explores how the energy that creates matter holds the answers to how we’re all connected. All matter is composed of an unseen energy that permeates the entire universe, connecting people and things across time and space. I approach this unseen energy through the manipulation and interaction of materials such as glass, steel, light, shadow and video projection. My work seeks to make visible these intangible ideas through material explorations that result in sculptures, installations, experimental films and immersive experiences. The resulting objects and installations evoke a sense of interconnectedness and wonder by exploring ideas of quantum entanglement and the perception of reality. My goal is to create work that shifts viewers’ perspectives and opens the door to curiosity."
