Il passato coloniale e l'inarchiviabile. Le pratiche artistiche di Délio Jasse tra memoria e archivi in movimento

Through the gaze of the Angolan artist Délio Jasse I will try to deepen the relationship that links memory, identity and image by proposing a critical reflection to rethink the colonial past consisting of fragments, memories and the repressed that build his artistic production. Jasse's investigation emerges out from documents, traces and debris and he creates new narratives; the artist is interested in bringing out individual, collective, personal and anonymous stories and memories; his art is characterized by focusing on hybrid identities, bodies, space and mobility. I will examine in what terms his photographic work weaves identity, private and collective memory, post-memory and how his artistic practices, by inventing new languages and manipulating the tracks, are a continuous questioning of the unarchivability.

本研究将以安哥拉艺术家德利奥·雅什（Délio Jasse）的创作视角为切入点，通过提出批判性反思以重新审视塑造其艺术创作的、由碎片、记忆与被压抑内容构成的殖民过往，以此深化记忆、身份与图像之间的关联。雅什的研究源于文献、痕迹与残片，并由此创作出全新叙事；该艺术家致力于挖掘个体与集体、私人与匿名的故事与记忆；其艺术创作的核心特征在于聚焦混杂身份、身体、空间与流动性。本研究将探析其摄影作品以何种方式织就身份、私人与集体记忆以及后记忆（post-memory），同时探析其艺术实践如何通过创造新的语言形式、操控创作线索，持续对不可归档性（unarchivability）展开诘问。
