By exhibiting an alternative consistency of what is unstable a certain sense of pure possibility seems to emerge, a life-rich space where the inherited, synthesized, speculative and the ever-expanding experiments find home, a mobile type of home. Read

Unreason

I experiment –or expediently make art– with that sense of productive confusion that lives in the complex and material rich elements of life, a way to embrace a lively suspension of the character of an artwork distanced from structural systems or studio networks, this may be because in life, anything might happen, but also nothing at all; fragile and imperceptible at times, this is my mechanism to render explicit the uncertain terrain of reality –and of art–, a way to flirt with invisibility, and a promiscuous approach to the status of an artwork and its authorship.

Physical, ritual, mythological, cognitive, technological, biological and mineral are recurrent work materials in the processes of thinking and/or formatting artworks, all of them chosen because of their complex potential and destabilizing endlessness; when embracing and integrating these materials a lively elliptical contingent suspension of the character of the artwork seems to emerge creating a cyclic hesitation that is incessant and unpredictable, a type of echo-system that infinitely reflects ‘unreason’.

Biography Read

Jason Brutalium (b. 1986) is a visual artist interested less in making concrete pictures than realizing connections and setting up conditions for perception and indelible engagement. His work involves film, journeys, situations, participation, light, sound, orchestration, automation, architecture, landscape, natural phenomena, drawing, and text —all while focusing on enlarging concepts of exhibition formats, medium and continuity—; born in Colombia and now working in New York and Berlin, his background in philosophy and political science can be remarked as some of the seeds from which his projects potentiality has grown from.
