In her practice, she often uses artefacts and archival work, collects historical accounts, writes fictional and non-fictional texts, and makes use of her autobiographical writing and field recordings. For the exhibition at K\u00fcnstlerhaus Bethanien, Dalberg investigated the fate of working women in 18th century Iceland,<span class=\"Apple-converted-space\">\u00a0 <\/span>just before and after the vulcanic eruption also known as the Skaft\u00e1reldar (1783-85) in the south of the island, which had a devastating impact on social and economic conditions.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">Digging through the archives of female court trials from that time, she found manuscripts and printed contemporary sources in the traditional Icelandic language concerning unmarried working women, who were punished for hiding their pregnancy and the birth of their children. If the child disappeared or the mother said the child had been born dead, they were guilty of murder unless they could prove their innocence. Being unmarried, they had no power over their own bodies, since sex outside of marriage was a crime in itself.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\">In <em><span class=\"s1\">Uncontainable truth<\/span><\/em>, five female protagonists (based on five testimonies) covered in red-dyed cloths and using traditional washing tools based on historical documents walk through a cold volcanic landscape, reenacting the hard labour conditions at the time. The choreography and the rhythmic movements of the women&#8217;s work are accompanied by the artist&#8217;s own voice reciting the old manuscripts that she has reinterpreted poetically as the only records of the women&#8217;s existence. Aiming to give them back the voices that they were consistently denied, the film brings their names to light. The soundtrack to the film is a combination of these spoken narratives and an airy composition for the trumpet played by \u00c1ki \u00c1sgeirsson in an ode to centuries of silence.<\/p>\n<p class=\"p1\"><span class=\"s2\">Mar\u00eda Dalberg<\/span> (b. 1983) is a contemporary artist based in Reykjav\u00edk.
