clay objects on a table with a lamp

Clay for the Process by Katrīna Šatalova

In my project I put focus on the process of interaction with material. I work without sketches or expectations of the final outcome. My intention is to experience a full cycle of clay, so I prepare it myself straight from the ground. The practice reflects anthropologist’s Tim Ingold’s theory on thinking through making.

I Have Always Been Here by Taísa Helena

‘I have always been here’ is a ceramic and audio installation where women are invited to listen and connect to Mother Earth. The designer embodies the voice of the cosmos, summoning the sun and moon, the elements of nature and the cycle of life in one novel ancient ritual. The ceremony is set around ceramic rings centered by one sphere, that broadcasts the voice of the Earth.

artefacts made of hay

In Search of Serenity by Hannakaisa Pekkala

The hand-sewed surfaces explore the connection between making, crafts and creativity. Focusing on simple crafts can offer calmness, a way to be
grounded and present through repetitive work led by intuition and freedom. The outcome is a dialogue between the fragile, subtle material and the working hands.

a hanging sculpture made of wooden parts and metal wire

One by Roosa Muukkonen

This work was a means to make sense of my own lived experience with a dissociative disorder. Along the way I found out that wholes are not necessarily ones, and that more important than unified fronts are the dialogues in-betweens. Sense of connection creates a sense of common ground, a safe space for change and growth.

The end result is “one” sculpture made of numerous separate parts, coming together to form a whole, held together by their connect.

four organic shaped works hung on a white wall

To Become by Maria Nurminen

This work explores the moment of change. What happens when something comes to a point of its life cycle, where it ceases to be what it was? At that moment, old structures get dismantled and its substance splits into a countless number of particles. These particles then travel where they are taken to, and become a part of something else.

a series of organic shaped sculptures with dark background

Vessels for the voices of subconscious by Johannes Kaarakainen

The work is a series of sculptures, that give a physical form to a variety of pessimistic inner voices stemming from deep within the subconscious. The beings feed on the feelings of fear, insecurity, frustration, self-doubt and uncertainty. They speak through their synthesized voices, craving for attention and validation, constantly reminding of their existence.
