Artist Statement

Ali Yass practice departs from personal histories. In re-narrating that which has been marginalized or deferred from his own temporal position, Yass seeks to extricate interpretations of possibility as an essential condition of resistance in a desecrated time.

Ali is trying to capture and represent fear in his works, and believes this is one of the most rooted and clear feelings. He considers these works as an invitation to tell the daily life of fear as a person.
