Scarlett Yang
Scarlett Yang is a London-based artist and designer known for her revolutionary approach to conscious design and artistic work. Yang explores the evolution cycles of ‘hybrid matter’, where the analogue and the digital intersect and emerge as a life cycle. As a pioneer in ecological innovations, biomateriality and virtual materials, she brings forward a unique, multidisciplinary lens on the development and supply chain of new materials. Cross-referencing design systems, digital mediums and tactile experiences, Yang questions common understandings of the material consumerist culture, exploring how transience and temporality translates into material language and where materials can intersect and be integrated in the ecological chain.
Yang’s work has been exhibited internationally, including at Christie’s, the Victoria and Albert Museum, London Design Biennale, Rolls-Royce’s Muse Art Programme, Dutch Design Week, Design Museum Den Bosch and the Tropenmuseum. She also won the Dezeen Award and YouFab Global Creative Award in 2021, and the LVMH Maison/0 Green Trail Award and The Mills Sustainability Prize in 2020.
