Driven by an intensely process-orientated approach, Merl Yana immerses herself in the language of her materials and their transformations over time. Shaped by her experience of ancient ceremonies performed by the indigenous Mazatec community of Mexico, Yana’s paintings are a product of ritual and physical intimacy between her body and process.
