Jelena Jureša (born 1974, Novi Sad, Yugoslavia[1]) is a multidisciplinary artist based in Ghent, Belgium.[2]

Biography[edit]

Jelena Jureša holds a PhD in arts from Ghent University, Faculty of Arts and Philosophy, and KASK & Conservatorium[3]. She is affiliated with KASK School of Arts where she is developing her project Revolt! On a Refusal to Sing—Thinking Resistance Through Music, Waste and Complicity.[4]

Work[edit]

Jelena Jureša's practice involves a long term in-depth research.[5] In her films, photography, video installations and texts, she explores issues of cultural identity, gender, memory politics and forgetting and collective violence.[6][4] Her latest experimental feature film Aphasia interweaves the history of lens-based media and its use in creating collective, national identity during and after crimes that led to colonial genocide, the Holocaust, and the mass murders during the civil war in Yugoslavia.[7][8] The film focuses on the absurdity that arises from the collective silence surrounding historical crimes and paints a portrait of the banality of evil.[8][9][10] The film was produced by ARGOS centre for audiovisual arts where it was exhibited in a solo exhibition in 2019.[11] The film premiered at the 23rd Ji.hlava IDFF in Prague where it won the main award within the First Lights section.[12] The same year, Aphasia was shown within the program of Contour Biennale in Mechelen together with a new film installation Ubundu commissioned[13] by the biennale.[14] Ubundu is a film poem inspired by the writings of W.G Sebald and his comments on the “ugliness of Belgium” as a result of emerging amnesia and the participation of all Belgians in the exploitation of Congolese resources.[15] Through the multimedia project Mira, Study for a Portrait.[16] Jureša examines the possibility of multilayer photographic and micro-narratives and construction of post-memory of a Balkan family.[17][18][19]
