Berlin, Germany

Haci Sami Yaman (H.S.Y) is a self-taught visual artist based in Berlin, Germany. His practice encompasses layered acrylic painting, drawing and monumental scrolls approximately 20–25 metres long. Through layering, sanding, polishing and sealing, he develops personal visual worlds of lines, signs and fields of colour. His cycles include Trauma ReCoded, In Beziehungen and AR EX – The Codex of Existence. Memory, perception and relationships are central themes. His explorations of microcosm, macrocosm and information fields are artistic and philosophical investigations. Since around 2017, he has worked in the Open Studio at Alexianer St. Hedwig Clinics in Berlin.
