TALK TO ME SOFTLY, WHEN THE WORLD IS FADING AWAY

Merike Estna

If for Kate Millet the personal is political, for Merike Estna the personal is pictorial.

That is how she builds the narrative of Talk to me softly, when the world is fading away: as the artist’s intimate self-portrait. Estna manages to transfer a homey atmosphere to the exhibition space. The rooms of museums and galleries, on occasion, seem to us cold and distant owing to that aura of estrangement that, nevertheless, the artist succeeds in overcoming. Talk to me softly, when the world is fading away is a safe space, a place of warmth and care.
