Nilupa Yasmin
Nilupa Yasmin graduated from Coventry University in 2017 with a First Class Hons Photography Degree and lives in Birmingham. Her work is primarily lens based, while taking a keen interest in the notion of culture, self-identity and gender politics. Combined with her love for handcraft and photographic explorations, the artist repeatedly draws upon her own South Asian culture and heritage and position as a British Bangladeshi Muslim woman. The artist explores issues of under-representation through community photographic practice combined with a unique communal process of weaving, passed down through inheritance.
