Expedition – an exploration, journey, or voyage undertaken by a group of people, especially for discovery and scientific artistic research.

The TypoCraftHelsinki journey started in 2015 with the TCH´15 exhibition in Helsinki. This exhibition was invited to Seoul in 2016, where a collaboration with Gallery Factory started. TCH´17 is a collaboration between Finnish, South Korean, Estonian and Chinese artists, who together explore the endless possibilities of TypoCraft.

Exhibition #105 – Matias Karsikas & Armi Teva / Loves Me, Loves Me not 

18.10.–16.11.2025
In Karsikas’ sculptures, ceramics, glass and wood refer to the forms and organic rhythms of nature, while Teva’s works depict people balancing between the mystical and the everyday. The rebellion of Romanticism against the worship of reason was reflected in sentimentality, nature photography and a longing for the past. In this exhibition, it is expressed in slow working, an appreciation of craftsmanship and allowing materials to be imperfect and unpredictable.

SOMMARSTILLEBEN

15.6.–24.8.2025
This summer, Lokal makes an all-summer-long expedition to Billnäs, an old ironworks village to the West of Helsinki. Bringing beauty in the form of artwork, crafts and handmade homeware into a space which still starkly echoes its unique history, the Sommarstilleben exhibition is a celebration of Lokal’s core values. The still lifes are an ode to the magical, fleeting nature of the Nordic summer.
