Tokyo Grid
A reflection of my experience as a Tunisian having a culture shock while navigating Tokyo’s massive zebra lines. They seemed different from above: the scene felt peaceful & silent. It was the only moment during my trip when I could truly see the crossing in stillness and not with chaos.
About Artist
Yasmine Hamani
Hi, I’m Yasmine, a 24-year-old visual artist and filmmaker from Tunis and based in Berlin. My background is in graphic design and filmmaking, but I started with photography, which has always been my way of observing the world around me. I’m drawn to urban rhythms, people in motion and interactions between cultures, populations and spaces. My work has been exhibited in various locations in Berlin and Tokyo, and it often explores the tension between chaos and order, presence and transition. Travel has shaped how I perceive reality and the way it's interpreted by different cultures, especially my first trip to Japan, which deeply influenced my approach to framing space, movement, and emotion in photography. I capture not just what a place looks like, but how it feels to be there in a particular moment. For me, photography is about freezing emotional truths in time and documenting our human history.
