Hêlîn Alas (*1987) is a visual artist and art educator. With her multidisciplinary practice, she negotiates the mythical and affective dimensions of scripts that promise societal belonging. Through objects, photography and performance, Alas creates model-like scenarios in which the often unspoken currencies for successfully locating oneself within different social spaces are revealed.

In 2017, she was a participant in the mentoring program BPA// Berlin Program for Artists and spent the following year in New York City on a DAAD post-graduate scholarship. She has lived and worked in Munich since 2019, where she had a solo presentation at Museum Brandhorst in 2022. Her work has been part of various group exhibitions, including Habibi Kiosk at Kammerspiele Munich, Sentiment (Zurich), Mauer (Cologne), Kevin Space (Vienna), and Between Bridges (Berlin).
