Yacine Fall is an interdisciplinary performance artist and sculptor. Fall received a BFA from the Corcoran School of the Arts and Design in 2019 and is a current MFA candidate at Yale School of Art. Fall has exhibited works in venues such as Essex Gallery NY, African Center, and Marjorie Barrick Museum of Art. Through repetition, ritual, history, and intimacy with and of materials, labor is equally physical and conceptual. Fall understands the human body as evidence of physical, cultural, and political exchanges. Her Senegalese/Mauritanian roots have a large influence on her practice and guide her material experimentation and research. She is interested in challenging and or reinforcing the concept of function through ritual practices, while investigating the tapestry of black womanhood, the diaspora and its ties to the global community and the natural environment.
