Info
Amanda Assaley lives and works in Frankfurt am Main, DE. She received a Meisterschüler from the Städelschule in 2024 under Prof. Hassan Khan, having previously studied at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and Yale Norfolk School of Art.
In her work Assaley articulates images, objects, film and video through a sculptural language, asking questions such as how the vernacular may upset power dynamics and address ongoing experiences of violence and dissolution. Her works arrive by way of restless formal processes of desire, leverage, and mutation as these interlace with the production of political realities. In centering method to produce and engage subject matter, Assaley’s works function as exercises in, or conduits for, struggle.
