Artist Statement- Jasmin Khatun

Jasmine’s work has helped to express her thoughts and ideas on the chosen theme. Her work has a political message behind it also. To empower women. To show audiences the difference in times then and now. Quotes such as ‘he sold me for 1000 pound’ show the gritty reality jasmine is trying to portray.

Of course, Jasmin’s work is a vessel that is carrying the stories and life experience of her mother. She is using art to get her mother’s horrible past. In her own words the artist says ‘My mum has never spoke to anyone about this, and couldn’t at the time obviously. So she wrote loads of diaries.
