Yuli Serfaty
Yuli Serfaty (b. Israel 1992) is a multimedia artist living and working in South East London. She uses fictional narratives to critically highlight the interdependence between systems, power and the natural world by analysing ecological entanglements, how we control them, and especially, how we fail. Inspired by artistic worldbuilding as well as governmental terraforming, her work is research based and incorporates installations of sculpture, film, writing, new media and sound.
