b. 1980, in Luanda, Angola, lives and works in Milan, Italy.

In his photographic work, Jasse often interweaves found images with clues from past lives (passport photos, family albums) to draw links between photography – in particular the concept of the “latent image” – and memory. Jasse is also known for experimenting with analogue photographic printing processes, including cyanotype, platinum and early printing processes such as “Van Dyke Brown”, in addition to developing his own printing techniques. The analogue processes Jasse uses give his work a monotypic character, subverting the reproducibility of the photographic medium through direct intervention on unconventional media and application of emulsion with chromatic notes.
