The matter of the individual being a social entity, positioned between subjective experience and collective imagination, is at heart of the issues raised by Abeer Sultan. In her multimedia installation, in The Reparation of a Lost Tooth, the artist humorously tackles the mechanics of dreams and nightmares. Starting from the universal and hardly insignificant design of the tooth, and more precisely from its falling and loss event. She develops an interconnected network of images and sounds, stories and situations. Seeking to uncover the principles of obsession and repetition, the continuity of rupture and narrative, and the association of ideas and digression that govern the act of dreaming, the artist create an installation—capturing what dreams are made of.
