Exhibition #41 – The House of Play and Rain
24.2.2017 – 19.3.2017
The House of Play and Rain is the first in a series of three exhibitions, as part of Hanna-Kaisa Korolainen’s doctoral studies at Aalto university. The exhibition is inspired by various visual artists, from Raoul Dufy to Niki de Saint Phalle. Rugs, woven jacquards and printed fabrics create a home-like setting, where influences from the imaginary Paris of 1920’s are combined with the artist’s childhood scenery of 1970s Finland. Presenting the sketches, materials and tools behind the artwork reveals the mystery behind the artistic process.

Exhibition #102 – Didi NG Wing Yin / Not Just Something
28.2.–29.3.2025
“Through carving, I aim to reveal the unseen essence of wood. Every mark, texture, and cut represents my reflections on the material, inviting viewers to connect with the wood’s silent yet hidden language. Each artwork is a record of thinking through making, where each piece embodies my study of the nature of wood itself.”
Exhibition #101 – Ilari Hautamäki & Santtu Mustonen / Once in a Hyper Moon
25.1.–22.2.2025
This unexpected exhibition presents a collection of works that explore three-dimensional textures, color combinations, and various techniques used to create texture-filled surfaces. The materials used by the artists, such as glass and paper, serve as the foundation for the pieces. The artworks blend the organic and industrial, as well as the controlled and spontaneous, in ways that reflect each artist’s unique approach.
Exhibition #100 – Niidome & Lautenbacher / Hiver – Fuyu
7.12.2024 – 18.1.2025
In the wintertime exhibition, wood and ceramics complement each other. The pitch black and glossy white wooden surfaces and the tones of red clay brick alongside porcelain are windows to other worlds – they bring play, warmth and comfort to the middle of this season.
