Jassem el Hindi is a French Palestinian Lebanese artist and performer based in Norway. He examines the double bind of haunting and hospitality, in the company of death poems and distorted folk art. His work is based on broken dances, broken objects, broken texts, cast in nervousness and necessity. His latest dance pieces are based on arab death poems – works by Etel Adnan, Nazik El Malaika, with western counterparts: Aase Berg, CA Conrad, Tor Ulven – in order to generate baroque, cruel, cosmological worlds. His work often starts with a death poem and a set of iconographic material. In Oslo, he runs the social media page @palestinaeventsoslo and is part of the Palestinian action group.
