Off Square by Jasmin Coleman.
Coleman’s hybrid practice shifts between painting, sculpture and more recently large scale participatory installations. Jasmin typically employs inherently robust industrial materials and refashions them to emphasize material integrity and/or structural integrity. Conceptually, Coleman is interested in how primary materials and readymade objects can be used to discuss individual and mass societal value systems.
