Participating artist on In the making exhibition<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Yll Xhaferi (1988, RKS) is a Kosovo-born interdisciplinary visual artist who works largely across painting and digital media. Xhaferi considers the use of different artistic mediums a direct result of global influences. He incorporates different symbols and metaphors in his visual artwork, playing with collective and personal memory. The goal is to build and monumentalise a fictional narrative that can be used as a \u201cshelter\u201d for the viewer.
Within his work, Xhaferi explores technology as another space, viewing it as an opportunity to interrupt our understanding of physical form, or even to transcend it. The use of digital media in Xhaferi\u2019s works is an ironic protest, a way to share his wish to be part of a more global artistic scene. It calls to attention the experience of being a citizen of a state under development.
Recently, his artistic focus is expressed in issues related to environmental issues, ecology and nature. Xhaferi, with his experimental practice closely related to nature, will break down the boundaries between environmentally friendly and toxic materials. Thus, we are invited to immerse ourselves together in a garden-laboratory, where the commonalities and differences of the organic and the artificial flourish, constructed by the interference of new scanning technologies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
