Artists in residency

Hadi Jamali + Joséphine Javier

Discussion

The open studios will take place in the Blackbox at DAÏMÔN, and in the residency studio at AXENÉO7.

Artist-run center AXENÉO7 and production center DAÏMON invite you to a convivial 5 à 7 on Wednesday, July 30, to meet artists Joséphine Javier (AXENÉO7 / Nantes) and Hadi Jamali (DAÏMON / Montreal) in residence at La Filature for the summer.
On this occasion, the artists will open the doors of their studios to share their ongoing research, their ideas and the fruits of their residencies.

Hadi Jamali
Hadi Jamali is an artist working at the intersection of mixed-material installation, interactivity, and time-based media. His practice explores the recuperation of images, words, sounds, and marginalia from archival and historical materials. Using spatialized arrangements, his recent work examines dominant visual traditions and their entanglement with contemporary forms of (dis)location—geographic, cognitive, temporal, and moral.
Originally from Tehran, Hadi is based in Tiohtiá:ke / Montreal and holds a BFA and MFA in Intermedia Art from Concordia University.

Joséphine Javier
Joséphine Javier’s artistic practice poetically engages with questions of landscape representation and territorial planning.
By bringing narratives and concepts into confrontation, she explores a shifting interplay of perspectives. Her approach to landscape—through geography, geology, or the study of specific industrial sites—allows her to navigate between multiple worlds, at the crossroads of places that are traversed, felt, imagined, or misunderstood. Her gaze lingers on how certain vernacular architectural forms reinforce or disrupt our collective imagination.
Her graphic work, in particular, enables her to devise vividly stylized scenarios, often rooted in photographic research undertaken during field expeditions. The theme of cartography, understood as a relational process grounded in direct engagement with territory, underpins her practice.
