The Academy of Fine Arts of Uniarts Helsinki

'Claws and Connections - All the World’s Senses' opens on 25 January at Kuva/Tila

Claws and Connections – All the World’s Senses is the first full-scale exhibition of artistic research at the Kuva/Tila exhibition space in the Academy of Fine Arts of Uniarts Helsinki. Open from 26 January to 25 February, the weekly changing exhibition features 34 artist-researchers or working groups. The exhibition is curated by Denise Ziegler, Maiju Loukola, Haidi Motola and Mika Elo.

The exhibition consists of propositions that inhabit the space in a more permanent manner, as well as works and gestures that take the centre stage for shorter periods of time. Installations, sounds, paintings, videos, performances, interventions, exercises, excerpts, workshops, sculptures, and scores will have a chance to show their claws and suggest new ways of connecting. The accompanying Event Week from 30 January to 4 February is packed with performances, talks, and workshops.

The exhibition is a forum for artistic research that invites visitors to experience artistic research in its home field. Here, experimental arrangements, research gestures, processes and artworks perform their epistemic twists and turns on their own terms in a pluralistic and generous ensemble.

Claws and Connections is a place for new encounters, collegial dialogue, and peer-to-peer learning. Welcome to wonder, reflect and discuss – in medias res!
