Délio Jasse
Angola
Délio Jasse (1980, Luanda) lives and works in Milan.
In his photographic work, he frequently interweaves found images with traces of past lives (such as found photographs and family albums), approaching the concept of latent image versus memory. He uses analogue processes to subvert the reproducibility of the photographic medium, creating variations and subtle interventions through painting, liquid light, gold leafing, and collage.
Exhibitions (selection): Arquivo Urbano, Tiwani Contemporary, London, 2019; The Other Chapter, PhotoESPAÑA, 2019; An imaginary city, MAXXI, Rome, 2018; La Cité dans le Jour Bleu, Dak'art Biennale, 2018; Recent Histories, Walther Collection, Neu-Ulm and NY, 2017; That, Around Which the Universe Revolve, SAVVY Contemporary, Berlin, 2017; Afrotopia, Bamako Encounters, Bamako, 2017; and On Ways of Travelling, Angola Pavilion at the 56th Venice Biennale, 2015.
