____________________
Fashion designer, visual artist and equalities researcher addressing fractured identity and assimilation within physical and digital culture.
Analysis of her multiple identities (especially her Venezuelan Jewishness and her manufactured digital persona) is consistently woven into Zisman's work. Through her cross-disciplinary creative approach, her unconventional use of craft techniques and her obsession with creating high-impact, uncompromising visual narratives, 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, Zisman is a collaborator with Feminist Internet and Centre for Sustainable Fashion. 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. 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. Recent successes include her first award of funding from Arts Council England for her exhibition, בטחון — Tranquila, Mami, which opened at Ein Sof Gallery, London in April 2022.
