About the Book
In this crisis-ridden, COVID-19 era world, it has become imperative that artists embrace the mission to spark deeper conversations and wonderment with one another and their viewers through the designing of new grand narratives and the stark retelling of the plight of The Other. Metamodernism, a movement built of a longing for art to investigate the world around and within oneself, is a manifestation of digi-romantic psyches and tendencies in context of an art world left hungry for raw sincerity and emotional authenticity; Modernism and Post-Modernism no longer meet the appetite created by the challenges of the present day. Jada, a collective of resonant thinkers and makers, advances Metamodernism through a manifestation of its ethos in action. This manuscript is authored by Jônatas, Dana Blickensderfer, Suzanne Khalil, Jamie Moshe Straz, and Samuel Loetscher.

About the Creator
JÔNATAS
Paris
Jônatas Chimen DeSouza Dias DaSilva-Benayon (b. 1981) is a Brazilian-American Master Fine Artist (MFA) and author, whose work explores identity through the lens of migration and cultural fusion. Drawing from his own immigrant experience and those of his family, his art blends traditional Spanish Realism with multimedia approaches, incorporating elements like immigration documents, DNA tests, and personal diaries. His work, featured in biennials, museums, and galleries for over 18 years, reflects themes of displacement, belonging, and the importance of embracing cultural heritage as a cult to history and to future potential.
