Exhibition #78 – Hearth

26.11.–22.12.2021

Lokal Gallery
Annankatu 9, Helsinki

Our theme for this winter reflects heat, warmth, the home, sharing stories with our loved ones over a meal, and our primal human relationship with fire. Studies tell us that people with access to fireplaces are happier. So, to honour these wet and dark winter days, and to keep the fire from extinguishing, this exhibition is a symbolic celebration of the hearth. We invited a group of artists to interpret this theme in their respective mediums. 

Participants:

Jay Garden Jung, Juho Huttunen, Liucija Kostiva, Shan Shan Lim, Lotta Mattila, Fredrika Lindeberg, Ren Tong, Ananya Tanttu, Aurea Tanttu, Milla Vaahtera, Jaana Wahlsten

With ceramic design items by Aura Latva-Somppi and Udumbara, and jewellery by Fanni Lyytikäinen.
