"Berga's text works explode notions of originality and authenticity…. Formed by pages torn from poetry anthologies that have been partially erased and physically obscured to reveal new poems authored by the artist, and characterised by their brevity, brutal wit and underlying melancholy, Berga’s works are refrains, dreams, songs, secrets told to us of failed relations and broken arrangements…; they are mantras for the broken hearted or jaded among us." FOR MY OTHER / I deserve you dead my other who would not leave her bed / Eyes with mouth's lies wide / White teeth worn away / I for an eye spoke my promise / I learned to serve / shadows from words / I learned that the world turned / on a lie / I swallow those down One more i welcome letting down the stars one left by the edge fell burning in time / Before you left / I let you learn / I was I and her / one beyond the last gate / In my eyes / the sun died / I was / no lie.

Australia
Born New Zealand 1970--lives and works Australia--works across sculpture, drawing, painting, text and installation 'In both form and content, Berga's works are acts of transgression and transformation....There is something uncannily open about Berga's palpable and in fact electrifying work, something frank and disarming, bordering on the unguarded, a' salut without return' as Derrida puts it-a gesture of self expression and mortal vulnerability, made as if in insistent wager... as one risking exposure to the other'-DAVID L. CLARK 'Berga examines the elemental forces of sex and death.... Her works are powerful evocations into form of the nature of human beingness and of natural human recourse to formlessness'-ALISON KUBLER Berga is extensively privately collected and curated across Australia and around the world.
