𝑻𝑯𝑬 𝑶𝑩𝑺𝑰𝑫𝑰𝑨𝑵 𝑫𝑹𝑬𝑨𝑴 (2022) is a sound and text piece commissioned by @artseverywhere.ca part of the series Art-Life Rituals for Radical Tenderness curated by @danidemilia and Vanessa Andreotti in collaboration with the Gesturing Towards Decolonial Futures Collective. One moonless night I slept with the obsidian mirror beside me. I physically felt in my lower abdomen a pain that burned me. It was as if I had a sun inside me, it was a portal. That’s when I began to feel the vibration of events, the sound of invisible beings. That was when I understood that time did not exist. ☾ English and Portugues link in bio ☽

Songs For Ghosts, 2023 15’ Master CCC Diploma Jurys presentation Through a mirror of obsidian, oracle of time, a sun projects itself, flooding a dark room with its light. This very mirror becomes an instrument to explore the reflection of this sun, revealing unpredictable sensory layers. The performance generates a temporal fissure between subjective and collective colonial memory, aiming to uncover the blind spots of history in order to materialize its voices and ghosts. Thank you for these 2 amazing years, all the dear peers, teachers and faculty team! @ccchead 📷 Claudia Ndebele ✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶⁕✶

Visage reimagines the “Mysterious Peacock” legend from Brazil’s Northeast, exploring time travel through the body and spiritual transformations. Inspired by Cordel literature and Octavia E. Butler, this audiovisual work invites audiences on a journey through fractured time and space.🦚🇧🇷 Created by Jonas Van and Juno B, it blends speculative fiction with anti-colonial and trans perspectives. #Visage #SpeculativeFiction #AreYouForReal #ImmersiveArt

Excited to be showing for the first time at MASP! •••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••Histories of Ecology at MASP São Paulo. Group show 5th of September till the 1st of February About the show: At the Pietro Maria Bardi Building Curators: Isabella Rjeille, curator, MASP and André Mesquita, curator, MASP. The theme of the 2025 curatorial cycle, Histórias da ecologia (H1stories of Ecology) will be an international collective exhibition occupying five floors of the Pietro Maria Bardi building, MASP’s new space. In a context marked by intensifying climatic, political, territorial, and social crises, Histórias da ecologia investigates how artists, collectives, and activists from around the world respond to the present moment and understand the relationships between living beings, their creations, and the environment in which they live. The term “ecology” was chosen over the term “nature,” understanding humans as part of a complex ecosystem and not separate or hierarchically superior to it. The exhibition is based on the understanding that ecology is a system of relationships. Organised into five sections, the exhibition will address different ideas of time as an organising element of life, as well as the effects of forced displacement and migratory processes caused both by extractive models of production and the effects of climate change. In addition, the exhibition will offer an in-depth look at the systems of interdependence between humans and non-humans, encompassing different ways of inhabiting the world that consider the complexity and interrelation of different forms of life. Histórias da ecologia seeks to understand how art and society react and adapt to the environment throughout history, while inviting us to consider actions in the present and imagine possible futures.

Com muita alegria compartilhamos que nosso filme 𝑲𝑬𝑩𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑻𝑶 (2021) está em exibicao na sala imersiva do MIS Ceará @mis_ceara até agosto 2025! Agradecemos a toda a equipe curatorial e técnica pelo apoio e cuidado! Uma serpente viaja através de paisagens digitais oníricas e também de imagens estáticas da floresta amazônica, narrada a partir da repetição cíclica de um tempo espiralado, o tempo proposto em sonhos pela serpente. 𝑲𝑬𝑩𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑻𝑶 é uma ficção visionaria que narra uma fantasia radical, uma possibilidade de transmutação corporal e temporal a partir do encontro com a serpente Boitatá, que se alimenta de olhos, e que, após ter comido tantos, se transforma em fogo vivo. 🐍 We are very excited to share that our film 𝑲𝑬𝑩𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑻𝑶 is being screened in the immersive space at MIS Ceará @mis_ceara until August 2025! Thank you to the entire curatorial and technical team for their support and care. A serpent travels through dreamy digital landscapes and still images of the Amazon rainforest, narrated from the cyclical repetition of a spiraled time, the time proposed in dreams by the serpent. 𝑲𝑬𝑩𝑹𝑨𝑵𝑻𝑶 is a visionary fiction that tells a radical fantasy, a possibility of bodily and temporal transmutation through the encounter with the serpent Boitatá, which feeds on eyes, and after consuming so many, transforms into living fire. 🐍 Um filme de Jonas Van & Juno B Artista 3d, vfx e adaptação para ambiente imersivo: Isadora Stevani Mixagem de Som: Juliana R Espacialização Sonora: Amrita Jones Voz Oráculo: Sallisa Rosa Acompanhamento curatorial: Ariana Nuala Consulta Oracular: Madelyne dos Santos 🐍 Serviço: Sala Imersiva do Museu da Imagem e do Som Fortaleza | Ceará | Brasil Funcionamento: Quarta e quinta-feira (10h às 17h30) Sexta a domingo (13h às 19h30) Entrada Gratuita

“Jonas investiga como a monstruosidade pode ser atravessada pela metamorfose, tornando-se valiosa e nunca obliterada através da amálgama de substâncias. Trabalha com quartzo, ametistas, turmalinas, obsidianas e outras pedras, atribuindo a esses minerais possíveis processos de transfiguração — não para refazer estados de violência, mas para instaurar uma alquimia ancorada na vitalidade da vida.” Ariana Nuala Jonas Van @jonasssvan integra o grupo de artistas participantes da exposição “O ouro e a madeira”, sob a curadoria de Ariana Nuala @arianaynuala . ——— Jonas Van is part of the group of artists featured in the exhibition “O ouro e a madeira” [Gold and Wood] curated by Ariana Nuala. 📅 Até 05 de abril, 2025 [On view through April 05, 2025] 📍 Rua Barão de Tatuí, 521 🕐Ter a sex: 11h às 19h [Tue to Fri: 11 AM to 7 PM] Sab: 11h às 16h [Sat: 11 AM to 4 PM] 1-3.
