On behalf of the invitation of Les Brasseurs in Liège, Medusa presents Indigo Deijmann (b. 1997, NL) who’s work is fuelled by an obsessive crush on Robert Pattinson that lingers from her teenage years. As passionate fandom often entails unreachable desires, Indigo continuously copes with the unattainability of her Robert-fantasies. Through yearning love letters, fanatic paintings and miniature models of a “Robert Pattinson museum”, Indigo gives material substance to her unattainable longing in the attempt to make fantasy part of reality.

    The virtine showcases the expanding horizon of Indigo’s fandom as her “Robert Pattinson museum” grows to new life-size proportions.

With iterative citationallity, Indigo Deijmann loves Robert Pattinson. Her words —unreturned by Robert himself— rehearse the asymmetrical love relation that hyper-fandom inevitably contains. Roberts Pattinson’s banalities are inflated to (ill-proportioned) grandeur, testifying to the distortive impact that having a crush projects on the reality of a person. But as Indigo warps Robert’s being in acts of worshipping, what unquestionably contributes to her case of unhinged loning is a media-driven image, hiding the real Robert Pattinson of flesh and bones behind a sacralised facade of a celebrity. This taken into consideration, Indigo’s adoring discourse articulates more than just a one-sided romantic affair. By all means is Robert Pattinson the product of a collective process. Indigo’s seemingly personal fantasy is at one and the same part of a social one.
