Younès Ben Slimane
2019

All Come from Dust is a tribute to the cycles of life and the power of rebirth, as seen through the lens of an ancient craft that has stood the test of time.

Younès Ben Slimane (b. 1992, Tunis, Tunisia) is a filmmaker, visual artist, and trained architect whose practice unfolds between moving image, installation, and spatial research. A graduate of Le Fresnoy, he investigates how memory, landscape, and materiality intertwine to resist linear narratives and reimagine collective histories. By revisiting specific sites, his work reactivates suspended possibilities and constructs alternative temporalities.

His work has been been presented internationally at institutions such as the Mucem (Marseille), the Biennale de Dakar, the Zaha Hadid Foundation (London), the Wexner Center for the Arts (Ohio) and Beirut Art center.  His films  have been selected at the Locarno Film Festival, CPH:DOX, Curtas Vila do Conde, among others.  He has been an artist-in-residence at the Villa Medici (Rome).
