About me
My name is Jaye. I am a Dhurag man currenrlty living and working Kaurna land. I work across a number of mediums including, live and video-based performance and painting. An intention of my work is to consciously transform his personal dislocations into a visual strategy of self-disclosure. I often become my own subject in a lot of my practice. In other words, using my body as a site for art-making. Oscillating between self-mockery and sincerity, I aim to construct a forum for my artistic (and non-artistic) failures, successes, self-delusions and disappointments. My practice is stimulated by exploring the reality in and between what is often not permissible in public spaces and spheres. With a focused interest in the authenticity of suppressed emotions, I am wanting to navigate and respond to the consequences of placing the personal into the public.
