hippocratic / hypocrite

11 Feb – 16 Apr 2023

Attenborough Arts Centre (Leicester)

hippocratic / hypocrite, installation view at Attenborough Arts Centre.

Documentation by Reece Straw.

The installation presented in this exhibition marks a major step in Jas’ practice, bringing together autobiographical explorations across a multi-screen presentation that is activated by visitors moving around the space. Visitors are invited to interact with the installation and respond to the questions that Jas poses in his work: how is identity constructed, and by whom? How do our identities affect how we are perceived by others?

“I want this piece to pose uncomfortable questions about how the identities I belong to – including being disabled, British Asian, male, having a mental health condition – have been formed and shaped by others. [This work explores] my own experience as a person who has adapted to disability as an adult, and the ways in which it has impacted my life and my attitudes towards the other communities I identify with.” - Jas Singh
