The exhibition addresses the question of how the coexistence of different artists in a shared studio affects each individual’s art and work.
Jesse: “I open the studio door and immediately feel that so much is happening here. Here, I’ve cried and laughed. Sometimes dogs and birds roam the space, along with fabric scraps, wood chips, and sanding dust. ”
Linda: “The shapes of an apple and a heart are surprisingly similar. Dried, often modest-looking specks sprout over the summer and transform everything around them, from earth to sky.”
Veikko: “In ancient times, people believed that when a person died, their soul would fly to the sky as a bird, becoming part of the Milky Way. I think that when I die, some atom of me will be part of a willow tit.”
Pauliina: “I clear a path through the thicket and arrive by evening at a house whose windows glow with golden light. I open the door, and from the threshold I see two women—one old, one young.”
Valtteri: “I think of the prisoner in Wu Tao-Tzu’s story, who painted a landscape on the wall of his cell, clapped his hands three times, stepped into the painting, and vanished—far beyond the reach of his guards.”
