Yasmina bouziane biography of alberta

Yasmina Bouziane, is one part of the New York-based filmmakers sister duo of "The Bouziane Sisters", of Moroccan and French background, whose artistic collaboration extends beyond film into photography, video, and writing.

The film tells the story of an Off-Broadway actress who rethinks her life as she confronts the ghost of Stanislavski.

Yasmina Bouziane's video work, which includes, Yellow Nylon Rope, a first prize winner in the neo-ethnographic category at the 1994 Berkley Video Festival, and Imaginary Homelands, has used text, image and performance to explore issues of identity and gender in a cross cultural context-a space, which when referring to the distance between the Arab World and the West, can seem like a "chasm, which nobody can bridge" (as stated by the central figure in Imaginary Homelands).

Le Regard, and Ali Baba: Hollywood and Paris at Their Best are two of Yasmina's videos which are included in her latest installation piece entitled: Inhabited by Imaginings We Did Not Chose.
