Yasmine's Work

Yasmine Louali's practice explores the intersections of consumption, memory, and ritual. Through performance, sculpture, and culinary elements, her work invites audiences to reflect on identity, relationships, and how we process personal experiences—both metaphorically and literally.

By creating environments that require interaction, she compels her audience to confront how contemporary food practices distance us from the communal aspects of sustenance. Her work reflects on how industrialization and convenience have altered our relationship to food and each other, questioning what is lost when eating becomes an individual, transactional act rather than a shared, ritualistic experience.

Using molds and casts of her own body, she addresses themes of self-consumption and vulnerability. These edible sculptures reflect how parts of ourselves—our stories, our memories—are “consumed” by others, blending personal narrative with shared experience. This process represents both reclaiming memories and examining how connections are digested and absorbed.Louali's work transforms private memory into a communal experience, inviting acts of reappropriation and catharsis. Through ritualistic actions, her practice opens a space for collective healing, where personal narratives become part of a shared consciousness
