Yael Peri
Yael Peri
Yael Peri is an Israeli artist, working mainly with the disciplines of architecture and movement. She holds a MFA degree from the Bauhaus University in Weimar, Germany.
Yale’s artistic practice involves a variety of media and deals with different political aspects of space. Her main field of work consists of photography, installation and video, dedicated to the research of the history, narrative and power-relations of different social spaces.
Her practice is mostly project-based, relying on institutional as well as extra-institutional archival work. Many of her projects investigate the manner in which these archives translate into a spatial reality, and what exactly are the ideas, principles and ideologies influencing and creating public space.
