Yetty Elzas is renowned for her figurative sculptures that blend profound emotional depth with captivating aesthetics. Her works, characterized by soft curves and organic forms, are highly intuitive and aim to capture the full range of human emotions—from sorrow to joy.
Elzas draws inspiration from the natural world, particularly the shapes she observes in her garden and the driftwood she collects from beaches.

Currently residing and working in the Netherlands, Elzas has completed several significant commissions. One notable project is a monument commemorating the Jewish people from Wageningen and the surrounding areas who perished during World War II.
