Exhibition: London-based Serbian artist Breda Beban

“Whenever I want to move people without upsetting them, I use music.”
Breda Beban

Camden Arts Centre is delighted to present a new film installation in Gallery 2 by London-based Serbian artist Breda Beban.

My Funeral Song is a five-channel film work that shows Beban’s close friends as they imagine a time after their death. Each screen focuses on an individual, as they listen to the song they would like to have played at their funeral. The simplicity of each of the portraits heightens attention to subtle gestures and shifts in expression that chart an inner journey, through psychological states of remembering the past and envisioning a future in their absence.
