The exhibitions Jamais vu I and Jamais vu II explore the poetics of jamais vu experience. Both parts are meant to be experienced in a dialogue, in a looped play of inward-outward. All artworks appear ’not what they seem‘, shimmering, oscillating between familiar and unfamiliar, manifested and concealed, lucid and opaque so to create a sensitive space of fluid visuals and shifting meanings.
