Yasmine Anlan Huang (b. 1996, Guangzhou) is an artist and writer based in London and Dubai.  Her practice is rooted in storytelling, narratology, and self-mythologization. Primarily text- and video-based, she extends her world-building through installation and sculpture, creating sensory realms that encapsulate the narratives she constructs and persist beyond the stories themselves.

Central to her practice is the figure of the “girl,” whom she approaches not only as a subject moving between autobiography and autofiction, but also as an affective and aesthetic condition, and as a narrative device that mediates between intimate experiences and brutal realities. Her work further traces how stories mutate through translation, circulation, and reinterpretation, seeking forms of resonance that persist across geopolitical and cultural divides.

Huang’s solo and two-person shows include Magician Space (Beijing), Nicoletti Contemporary (London), Goethe-Institut Hong Kong (Hong Kong), among others. Her work has been included in the Whitney Biennial 2024 (New York), Power Station of Art (Shanghai), 421 Arts Campus (Abu Dhabi)(upcoming), Wschód (Warsaw), Ota Fine Arts (Shanghai), and more. Her debut book of poems and essays, Love of the Colonizer, and her second book, Becoming Everyone Everywhere, were published by Accent Sisters (New York). Huang has participated in multiple residencies, including Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (Maine) and Studio Voltaire (London) (Upcoming).

Huang was selected for Cultured Magazine’s 2025 Young Artists List and Forbes Asia’s 30 Under 30. She has also participated in multiple residencies, including the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture (Maine), and is soon a resident at Studio Voltaire (London).
