Yasmin Watts’ sculptural practice unfolds at the intersection of space, embodiment, and emotional resonance. Her figures, poised within architecturally informed environments, transcend mere representation, becoming sites of gestural expression and relational tension. Each pose—caught between motion and stillness, intimacy and distance—suggests an unfolding narrative, offering glimpses into the silent negotiations of human experience within shared spaces.

Beginning with maquettes as conceptual explorations, Yasmin scales her designs into life-size installations that engage the viewer on both intellectual and sensory levels. Through an interplay of form, material, and spatial organisation, her work generates liminal atmospheres that evoke vulnerability, presence and introspection. Perforated screens and dynamic platforms frame the human form, shaping the viewer’s movement through the space while inviting deeper reflection on their own embodied existence.

For Yasmin, the human figure is a vessel for both emotion and connection. Situated within abstract architectural frameworks, her sculptures speak to themes of isolation, interaction and the complex web of human relationships. The act of looking—into space, into others and into oneself—becomes a meditation on the intricate and multifaceted nature of coexistence. In this way, her work becomes both a personal exploration and a universal reflection on the conditions that bind us together in a fractured world.
