Yazan Abu Salameh


Jerusalem-born visual artist, Yazan Abu Salameh explores urban geographies through his work — depicting what can be seen as miniature maps that reflect the remnants of childhood memories, concrete blockades and watch towers, as well as Palestinian neighborhoods from a bird’s eye view. Using found objects and material, such as concrete, pebbles, wires and Lego blocks, his choice of medium — along with the concept — play a central role in the work he creates. Watch as Abu Salameh discusses his practice and the advice that has influenced his approach.
