Jesper Just likes short films with a background of soft and narrative music. In them, the artist presents men confronting their emotionality and mainly presents ambiguous love situations, reversible and often homo-erotic. The five mini-films (2002-2008) brought together in the exhibition Nomad in one’s own mind (Nomade en soi-même) deal with solitude, confused feelings, sexual ambivalence and vulnerability. The work of this Danish artist is an interrogation on human relationships and conscience.
Jesper Just, born in Copenhagen, lives and works in New York. He is represented by the Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin in Paris.
