- Yas Crawford is a visual artist and interdisciplinary collaborator from Pembrokeshire, Wales. She holds a B.Sc. in Geology from the University of Leicester and an MA in Photography from Falmouth University. Her work operates in what she calls the “Grey Space,” a zone between disciplines where art and science intersect, and where conventional understandings of the environment, time, and human experience are examined. Yas’ artworks investigate and inform scientific ideas, exploring evolutionary change, biological systems, and human impact on the environment. Her geology background provides a visual 3D framework that supports the structure of her art. Yas works across a wide range of media, including film, digital and analogue photography, illustration, X-ray, MRI, microscopy, and camera-less methods. Her work has been recognized internationally with numerous awards, including the 2021 Art of Neuroscience Award for Cognition IX, now on permanent display at the Netherlands Institute of Neurosciences, and the Quasi Quadro Land Air 4.0 Award in Italy. Yas has exhibited globally, collaborated with institutions including Tehran University of Art, Nottingham University, and the Australian National University, led workshops and lectures, and published several books. Yas is an Honorary Fellow of the Royal Photographic Society and a Fellow of the Royal Society of Arts.

- Cellular Flow
- “I’ve been thinking. Well, it seems I’ve always been thinking mainly about flow, flow of life, flow of cells, flow of energy, flow of time, since I became ill, since others became ill. Today I have a deeper understanding of my body, born of chronic illness. I scarcely noticed it before, just used and abused it. Now it manages me as my head cannot. Today, I made a deal with my body and agreed to listen to it and do what it tells me..
