Meta Is\u00e6us-Berlin\u2019s installations have an aesthetic terseness, where the setting of the narrative is based on the notion of the home. In her works, she uses stage structures as a visual framework. Familiar environments take on a dreamy atmosphere, where objects and materials are significant and tell their own story. Time and memory, dream and reality, are intertwined.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The work Sneak Suppression<\/i> conveys a suggestion, an anxiety, and a perpetual movement. The atmosphere in the room grows denser and a psychological drama arises, with the viewer as witness. This work is the first new installation that Meta Is\u00e6us-Berlin has presented since 2006. It includes the diptych Every Ending Holds a Beginning<\/i>.<\/p>\n
