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 lingering from her teenage years. As passionate fandom often entails unreachable desires, Indigo’s work copes with the unattainability of her personal Robert-fantasies. Yearning love letters, fanatic paintings and miniature models of a “Robert Pattinson museum” materialise her longing in the attempt to make fantasy reality.
    The virtine at Les Brasseurs showcase 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 —destined to be unreturned by Robert himself— rehearse the asymmetrical love relation that hyper-fandom inevitably entails. As RP’s banalities are inflated to ill-proportioned grandeur, we bear witness to the distortive effect that having a crush projects on the reality of a person. As Indigo warps Robert’s being in acts of worshipping, what unquestionably contributes to the unhinged honour is a media-driven image, hiding the real Robert Pattinson of flesh and bones behind a sacralised facade of a celebrity. Taking this media-coating into consideration, Indigo’s adoring discourse articulates a truth beyond the one-sided romantic affair; by all means is “Robert Pattinson” the product of a collective process, revealing that Indigo’s (seemingly) personal fantasy is at one and the same a social one.
