About this exposition

This exposition presents and documents the work Access to Landscape exhibited in Research Pavilion, Venice, 2017. I use a metaphor as a starting point: to scrutinise a landscape as a base for writing. I use my body as a writing tool. The work is referring to my family history, to a small minority group in Finland. It is about reflecting a community inside the society where the cultural identity is laid and reconstructed through a language of ancestors.It emphasises a language, which is absorbed by vicinity of social relations. By transcribing the letter on the snowy landscape I use public space as a kind of archive, restoring and presenting inscription. Time is pressed at least in a double way: first it is an old document as a starting point and then a snowy surface indicating temporality and challenging the notion of oblivion.
