Metsän kuvia

In visual artist Outimaija Hakala’s exhibition, a forest grows in a human-made space. This forest is a diverse whole, an artistic kin to an ecological biome, composed of plaster, wood, and paper instead of organic, living matter, with visual and auditory echoes from the outside. What is a forest? How does it feel, what does it mean, how does it look and sound? Who inhabits the forest, and whose home is it? Do we belong to the forest? The works invite reflection on the atmosphere of the forest and non-human beings.
