Welcome!
In the year 2020 we are following a long awaited natural disaster in slow motion but its scope has surprised everyone. Social life grows ever smaller and hanging around at home is reflected in the overconsumption of the news. How many new cases?
The invisible risk to catch the disease is made visible by colours glowing bright in the ultraviolet light as door handles, rails and buttons all seem lethal. In the Christmas time window displays of the pandemic era each new day brings new infection spread maps. By it you can stop and be amazed by your own minusculity and try to understand that in order to help more you need to do less. The Oksasenkatu 11 exhibition has specifically been designed to be pandemic compatible, that is, viewable only from outside.
Artist Antti Pussinen works in Berlin. In past few years he has in his art dealt with feeling minuscule in the face of forces of nature and the universe. His works have been exhibited in Kiasma, the Art Museums of Tampere, Jyväskylä, Kuopio, Hyvinkää and Kouvola, Gallery Sculptor, Freies Museum Berlin Luisa Catucci Gallery as well as Center for Architecture in New York.
