In My Secret Life - Hibernation

Exhibition

By:Josefina Posch
    Site specific solo project in  Bergrummet/Konstepidemin Göteborg , Sweden http://www.konstepidemin.se “In My Secret Life – Hibernation” Act I Scene 1-3 The installation in Bergrummet is the first part of Josefina Posch’s newest body of work “In My Secret Life” who lends it’s structure from operas use of multimedia and it’s composition of acts and scenes. In this first act we are confronted by a state of winter hibernation. The space becomes a baroque, surreal, Carrollesk under-world where time is passing but at the same time seems to stand still. An inner spiritual paradox between the dead still of the hibernation, the recovery and the frustration that time is short. The hibernation as a natural reoccurring state or as a necessary but involuntary result from trauma? The focus lays on what actually is in time and space, right now and mixes sound, sculpture, lights and smells to create an illusion of a working machinery. The title “In My Secret Life” comes from the Leonard Cohen song from 2001 with the same name.
