Elhem Younes works at the intersection of digital sculpture, video, and immersive environments — building systems that question how interiority is shaped by external structures.

Biography

Born in 1987 in Tunis and based in Paris, her work unfolds through an evolving vocabulary of forms that first emerged through drawing and later expanded into digital environments. Moving between interior states and systemic structures, her practice traces a progression from introspection to fragmentation, transmission, and control, where subjective experience becomes entangled with larger frameworks. This investigation extends into perceptual systems, including Anima, an eye-tracking installation developed as part of her doctoral research, where vision, attention, and states of awareness condition the emergence of form.
