Nathalie Djurberg (*1978) and Hans Berg (*1978) create animated worlds with objects music and
moving images - dreamlike realms where we might lose ourselves. Their playfully told fables
hold both humour and darkness putting any moral laws of gravity out of action. Djurberg's
vibrant stop-motion animations and sculpture groups accompanied by Berg's electronic music form
scenic installations in a surrealist vein. These intense chamber pieces enact fragments of
memories repressed between innocence and shame or feverish daydreams of role play and desire.
The shadowy landscapes sealed rooms and harshly-lit scenes of their films are inhabited by a
group of possessed figures seemingly set on devouring one another. The exhibition and fully
illustrated catalog describe an inner voyage an attempt to make existence more understandable
in a flow of impulses and impressions. Exhibitions: Moderna Museet Stockholm 16.6.-9.9.2018
