ABOUT
LEGACY II: Unde Sitis? Where Are You From?
Gallery A2, Annankatu 12, Helsinki, Finland
3.–21.5.2023
In my exhibition, I examined what we have inherited from our ancestors, what remains of it and what we pass on to future generations. I reflected on the spiritual relationship between man and nature through Finno-Ugric folklore, where the boundaries between man, nature and its spirits blur. In my works, I interpreted traditional themes in the language of contemporary art, creating an experience of cultural continuity and connection to our heritage. The works are made of recycled and natural materials, and they are connected to the material-based thinking of contemporary art.
LEGACY II: Unde Sitis? Where Are You From?
Galleria A2, Annankatu 12, Helsinki
3.–21.5.2023
Näyttelyssäni tarkastelin sitä, mitä olemme perineet esi-isiltämme, mitä siitä on jäljellä ja mitä siirrämme tuleville sukupolville.Pohdin ihmisen ja luonnon välistä henkistä suhdetta suomalais-ugrilaisen kansanperinteen kautta, jossa rajat ihmisen, luonnon ja sen henkien välillä hämärtyvät. Teoksissani tulkitsin perinteisiä aiheita nykytaiteen kielellä, luoden kokemuksen kulttuurisesta jatkuvuudesta ja yhteydestä perintöömme.
Teokset on toteutettu kierrätetyistä ja luonnonmateriaaleista, ja ne kytkeytyvät nykytaiteen materiaalilähtöiseen ajatteluun.
