Viki Berg, Monster Garden

Capsule

With Capsule, Luxembourg Art Week takes over a dozen vacant spaces in the city center. Each activated space will remain visible from the street around the clock.

Viki Berg, born in Kharkiv, Ukraine, lives and works in Berlin, Germany. She is a guest student at the Berlin University of the Arts (UdK) in Christine Streuli's class. Her work is inspired by the transformation of ancient weaving techniques, which she reinvents through modern artistic approaches, particularly in the field of textile arts. Viki Berg explores and reinterprets the carpet as a traditional cultural element while experimenting with shapes to create contemporary works. She regularly participates in collective projects and group exhibitions.

Immersing in the psychology of human existence, she believes that our consciousness can create images perceived as monsters, though, in reality, they may be something else. These could be our fears, unexplored corners of our inner world, or simply unusual expressions of our thoughts and emotions. Her series Monster Garden becomes her reflection on how we perceive the world around us. It invites us to ponder the nature of our perceptions of fear and monsters, and how we can transform them into something beautiful and inspiring. Her art bridges reality and imagination, where each flower gains its unique story and significance.
