SUOMEKSI

Based on a dialogic process, the exhibition brings together works in which the artists deal with their memories, remembering through various events and family relationships. The concept of a person's self is understood to be constructed in interaction with the environment and social relations. The works on display in this exhibition contemplate and reflect on different surrounding relationships and events by inviting visitors to a dialogue. The spatial dimension also offers the opportunity to delve into memories physically, allowing the visitor to concretely descend into the layers of different memories inside and outside the exhibition space. In connection with the exhibition, the artists have been interested in exploring how they can involve the public in the process of making the art works, and the exhibition program has been influenced by this gesture of invitation.This exhibition is the first part of the year-long In Continuous Dialogue 2023 -exhibition project, the second part In Continuous Dialogue II -exhibition will open in Vapaan Taiteen Tila (November 2023).
