Honouring the Dead Through Art

Felipe Jasso is a Mexican Canadian photographer and graduate of the Alberta University of the Arts. His work is influenced by the magical realism found in Latin literature, surrealism, classical art, and symbolism. He investigates the subconscious, memory, and his inner desires. Using symbolism and complex tableaux, Jasso brings to the forefront fragments of his experiences as a kid growing up in Mexico, an immigrant, a queer artist, and his negotiations with the Canadian landscape.
