Artist Statement:
Yana Knight is an artist currently based in Stockholm (Sweden) and Brussels (Belgium) who transforms her life into comics, zines and graphic novels. Yana’s work is playfully experimental, often mixing multiple materials and old and new technologies in a single work.
Yana’s comics and cartoons are rooted in personal experiences and small but important everyday life’s delights. Her method of comic making is one where stories, memories and experiences of everyday life are transformed into visual fragments or narratives – part real life, part fiction – in a playful, humorous way.
She has recently added Artificial Intelligence to her artistic palette alongside the more traditional ways of image making (drawings, photos, block printing) as a material to create new surprising narratives and comics.
Subtly through her work she draws attention to larger more universal themes such as nature’s cycles, environment, transformation and finding ways to live in a changing landscape.
