Jason Hendrik Hansma’s solo exhibition at Videotage, entitled ‘FUSE Artist Residency - Jason Hendrik Hansma: Opaline (Lattimo)’, will take place from 23 March to 26 April 2019, with a series of activities such as artist talk, reading session, and a meet-the-audience brunch. As a recurring text used by Hansma for describing the exhibition idea of containment and vessels as political forms of separation, “Iridescent shells can be used as small bowls the same for cupped hands, protecting us from unmaking. Shapes reconfigure actions - iteration after iteration, iridescence is refractive, colours bounce from the position of eyes.”
