“BEAST”
by U
3-8.9.2024
Vernissage TUE 3rd 17-19
(ritual performance at 17.15-17.40)
TUE-SUN 12-18
(SAT 15-19)
An audio-visual meditation about undefined temporary emotional turbulences and a suggestion how to gently diffuse these clouds.
Interpretations of freedom, insecurity and uncertainty in the present, where the world of possibilities offers more confusion than comfort. Treatises about feelings of being lost in life's surprising turns. About death, comfort and harshness. About unattainable afterlife. Obscurity if there is life after death. A tribute for a journey where reality transforms, mixes, melts or freezes into runaway objects and moods. Beast is a celebration of the free fall that any unknown place can offer when entering a new chapter in life.

U (b.1982) is an architect, contemporary artist and a yoga instructor based in Helsinki. Through the use of frequently intense color palettes, her paintings and multidisciplinary artworks explore concepts of memory and myth with the intention to meditate on subtle feelings behind interpersonal events. Themes include (among others) corporeality, construction sites, portraits of artists who have been arrested because of their art—and lately—sound art.
