____________________
Fashion designer, visual artist and researcher addressing the complexity of stratified Jewish identity in the West within physical and digital culture.
Analysis of her multiple identities (especially her Venezuelan Jewish-ness and her manufactured digital persona) is consistently woven into Zisman's work. She is especially interested in the visuality of assimilation, and explores this through print and image. She seeks to challenge the notion of a fixed truth that ‘seeing is knowing,' that perception of a body in culture equals the real.
As well as having her own eponymous label (currently profiled with the British Fashion Council), Zisman a collaborator with Feminist Internet and an Equalities Researcher at Goldsmiths, University of London. She completed her BA in Fashion Print from Central Saint Martins in 2019. Since then, her work has discussed and featured in the likes of Dazed, LOVE Magazine, SHOWstudio, The Face, Vogue Italia, Teen Vogue, Tatler, King Kong Garçon, Schon! Magazine, Culted and ODDA Magazine. In October 2019, she presented her first solo exhibition, יהי רצון / So Let It Be Your Will, hosted by Centre for Sustainable Fashion and Waltham Forest, London Borough of Culture 2019. In February 2020, she presented at London Fashion Week for the first time, as part of the Positive Fashion Exhibition at 180 the Strand.
