Group Exhibition
Galleria Heino kicks off the autumn season with a group exhibition featuring six artists, five of whom have not yet held a solo exhibition at the gallery.
Sculptor Petri Eskelinen (b.1975) presents a series of time-lapse videos that combine growing plants with special effects from science fiction films. A certain kind of plant growth, for example under the influence of light and artificial gravity, becomes a metaphorical examination of human life. Eskelinen's sculptures will also be on show in the exhibition.
Artist Tamara Piilola (b. 1977) presents large paintings of houses, fountains and window openings overgrown with rampant vegetation. These paintings in pure colours, with their interplay of contrasting bright light and dark shadows, lead the viewer to contemplate the transience of time and all things.
Artist photographer Harri P盲lviranta (b. 1971) presents photographs from his series The Wall Tourist (2016-2025). In the series, he has photographed border fences and walls constructed in different countries to prevent movement between peoples. In addition to the actual fence built on the Finnish-Russian border, the exhibition also includes a photo of a fence intended for practicing border conflict situations.
Visual artist Kimmo Sarje (b. 1951) presents works from his series of Sots Art montages. In these works, he has juxtaposed images of Lenin's Mausoleum in Moscow, the Kremlin, and the Red Square with hallmarks of modernism in visual art鈥攑rimary colours, squares, and vertical stripes. Sarje thus juxtaposes seemingly disparate concepts to create new meanings.
In the exhibition, photographer Sari Soininen (b. 1991) presents three self-portraits that have been influenced by the ideas of esotericism but created from her own perspectives. Esotericism refers to hidden or inner knowledge and experiences of the nature of the world and the dimensions of existence. At the same time, it can also act as a catalyst for inner change in individuals.
Visual artist Maija Tammi (b. 1985) presents her photo series One of them is a human, 2017. The works resemble self-portraits and depict human-like robots, androids. One of the portraits in the series is of a human being. However, the artist does not reveal which one, thus raising questions about the similarities and differences between androids and humans 鈥 now and in the future.
