One-way Street

About this title

With “One-Way Street”, we see an evolution in Dahlberg’s work, fram an emphasis on literal architectural structure towards a more dynamic play with abstraction, marked by his use of theatrical lighting and reflected images of an almost dreamlike quality. In the Jungian sense, abstraction’s purpose is to break the object’s hold on the subject, thus freeing the content from old meanings. When this separation occurs, as it does in Dahlberg’s work, the space for new meanings opens up.
