Malak Yacout
Present
Malak Yacout’s work has explored issues of time, semiotics, structuralism, and epistemology. Currently, she is exploring ontological approaches to languages and objects (or sites) as ‘beings’. How does art relate to sites and what might site-specificity actually mean? Her research-based practices conceptually reflect on ideas of site-specificity in art, of relations between objects and beings, of the inseparability of concepts. Usually formulated as open questions, her work invites speculation in a never-ending cycle of recontextualization and redefinition: There is always something to reconsider.
