Meta Is忙us-Berlin
In the exhibition "There Is No Time In the Dream鈥� at Galleri Andersson/ Sandstr枚m in Ume氓, Is忙us-Berlin's is commenting the classical notion that there is a magical place from which stories come. In this exhibition, such places are depicted with a dissolved imagery, because regardless of whether we are gazing at works such as "Writer鈥檚 Den鈥�, "The World鈥檚 Best Hiding Place" or "Where It Happens 鈭� The Poet鈥檚 Couch", the creative source inevitably stems from an inner room. It takes place in this timeless place, shaped by the memories and impressions that each individual has experienced. The painting "A Room of One鈥檚 Own鈥�, named after a Virginia Woolf novel, is dealing with precisely that individual sanctuary, constituted by such a room.
Meta Isaeus-Berlin shares that Salvador Dali once said that his favourite journey was the one from the bedroom to the bathroom. She continues: "He believed that physical travel was redundant, since so much was always going on inside of him, even in the most trivial of moments. I feel a strong kinship with this stance. However, I am aware of that, in order to be preserved, this inner room needs to be nurtured actively. It is a way to affirm the elasticity of one鈥檚 personality, to better appreciate existential values, of both large and small matters."
In this exhibition, several of the prominent qualitites within Is忙us-Berlin鈥檚 oeuvre are anchored. Her suggestive scenes tell stories about the symbolic value in the recognizable, works teeming with assertion of memories and experiences. In 鈥漈here Is No Time In the Dream鈥�, Is忙us-Berlin explores her associative trajectories to the fullest, in order to explore their initial origin.
