How do you find your own place? Who has a place in our society? How are spaces formed? How are they built?
A collective exhibition of spatial works and sculptures opens up space for dreams, change and growth. The works in the exhibition invite you to come together and marvel, but also allow for quiet observation.
Is it possible to escape into one’s own space through language? Can something important be built by making music together or just listening? Sometimes a shared space opens up between friends, sometimes solitude brings peace and much needed rest.
The artists invited to the exhibition are Corinna Helenelund, Ninni Luhtasaari, Mari Oikarinen, Organic Sound Society, James Prevett, Lempi Prevett, Iida Valmé and the working group Tero Harju, Tuuli Malla and Erja Taskinen. The exhibition also features works by students from the Svenska Privatskolan i Uleåborg and the Oulu International School.
The exhibition is curated by Selina Väliheikki, curator at the Oulu Art Museum, and has been supported by a state grant from the Finnish Heritage Agency.
