Eva 脥sleifs: J枚r冒in er r煤mi冒 mitt / The earth is my bed
鈥淚 tend to see shapes and faces in the clouds and believe that they are messages. Researchers call it Pareidolia and they say it's a false perception of seeing a non-existent face or pattern in everyday objects. I say it can be what it is and for humans it's a tool in understanding the world. I put faces to objects, they become characters and we all live together. Dear Dal铆 would agree. Do you? I mean do you! Do do do you鈥�.鈥�
The exhibition THE EARTH IS MY BED presents new work by the visual artist Eva 脥sleifs. Scattered objects of super~imposed simplicity, signs helping humor out, and the dialog that opens up a whole heap of mess that we comfortably sit in. In THE EARTH IS MY BED Eva presents a series of works which explore the paradigmatic warning signs of our current environment. If the times we live in were instead to be understood as a location and each of us its inhabitants, these works could offer a helpful guide of how we are to proceed through such a place. Join us for the opening on the 12th of August at Kling&Bang gallery for a visual rocket fuel of magic and fantasy. The work of Eva often reflects the exhausted human, how the man perceives himself, the everyday and the social discourse. Ghosts of a bastard craft are lingering in the work, but as a way of replication and distortion within a historical context. She often plays with humor where hope and hopelessness play against each other and what is left are questions on how valuables and values are perceived and created. In her sculptural work she works with the notion of the replica, fact or fictional environment where she constructs performances, live or within the setting itself.
