Exhibition #43 – Anna & Sandra

4.–28.5.2017

Sisters Anna and Sandra Kantanen are exhibiting together for the first time. In a collaboration they are bringing together Anna’s passion to transform everyday objects into luxurious moments, with Sandra’s floral photographic series ”Distortions”. The exhibition is a colourful play on traditional themes seen in a new way.

Anna is a designer with an interest in breaking our perception on everyday objects. Her interest lies especially in tableware and how we display different ingredients and shapes. ”Nouvelle Cousine” inspires Anna where all the elements of taste, ingredients, tableware and layout is considered part of the artistic process.

Sandra is an art photographer working in Hanko. Her new photographic series Distortions addresses a traditional theme of flower arrangements, but rather than observing the flowers the pictures observe time. Without using a camera and playing with exposure times on a scanner, Sandra’s pictures create a dreamy and stretched world of its own kind.

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.
