Yasmin Nebenführ is an Australian photo-media artist based in Berlin, Germany. Engaging with themes of entropy, the passage of time, decay, and macro and micro locations; her experimental practice incorporates digital and analogue techniques to present abstract imagery. Predominantly working with extensive collections of found imagery, Yasmin utilises her archiving work experience throughout her practice and constantly seeks new ways to transform and re-present images and their narratives.
Yasmin is a 2016 graduate of RMIT’s Bachelor of Fine Art, where she majored in Print Imaging Practice. Currently, Yasmin works for Berlin art institutions and facilitates photography workshops surrounding the archive and its potential.
