Ella Yolande
Glasshouse Symbol I, 2023Tissue papier-mâché, pigment, silicone and wood41 x 34 x 1 cmCopyright The ArtistElla Yolande (b. 1997, UK ) lives and works in London. Tangled in thoughts about the vegetal, wildness, seeds and our messy, multi-species bodies, Yolande’s practice is informed by queer ecologies, ideas of resilience, preservation and the more-than-human. Through considering the history and medicinal properties of plants as well as the need for mutual flourishing and rethinking the human body as individual, she explores our interwoven existence with our surroundings through playful thinking on speculative ecologies.
