Moment

Moment (2023) installation / 4-channel sound, casted stone powder, textiles, synthetic fibres, metal, wood, artificial grass, light

About / the installation transforms the exhibition space into an extended moment - in a garden or a greenhouse, where unnatural wonders are cultivated. Simultaneously rising and about to collapse, a contorted body balances superhumanly on its hair, while growling creatures await on the ground (text by Petra Lehtoruusu)
