Venus (2014) 

Jasmine's work explores American visual and popular culture from the mid to late twentieth century in the form of collage and moving image. Her work encompasses the ethereal beauty and essence of American femininity, masculinity, sexuality, musical and sociopolitical history. Each work takes on a life of its own through bold use of color, layers, subject matter and overall composition. Many of the collages and moving images reflect an interest in a specific type of American visual culture: fashion and beauty advertising and music of the 1960s. Jasmine is interested in this particular time frame in American history due its revolutionary impact on mainstream American society as a whole in terms of how American men and women were represented in print and audiovisual media.
