Tuçe Yasak
Lighting Designer

Tuçe Yasak has been following light in NYC since her move from Istanbul to New York in 2009, creating over 100 site-specific light installations for performance in the US and abroad. Yasak received a 2018 "Bessie" for ...Memoirs of a... Unicorn by Marjani Forte-Saunders at Collapsable Hole and NYLA and a 2019 "Bessie" for Oba Qween Baba King Baba by Ni'Ja Whitson at Danspace for Outstanding Visual Design with her lighting design. She has been collaborating with Raja Feather Kelly and the feath3r theory since 2015. Light, movement, and architecture intertwine in Yasak's work to support spacemaking and storytelling. Her Light Journals were presented in March 2021 by Ars Nova NY and she is currently developing her first solo installation WALL to be presented by Five Myles Gallery in July 2022.
