Institut finlandais: Between Earth and Sky

Curated by Katja Hagelstam of Lokal Gallery, the collection Between Earth and Sky showcases the work of eleven contemporary designers through ceramic, wood and glass pieces, as well as sustainable household linen by Lapuan Kankurit.

Located in the Punavuori district in the heart of Helsinki, Lokal Gallery merges art, craft and sustainability. Each piece reflects the harmony of nature in its essence, material and design, such as Tiia Anttila’s delicious ceramic fruits, Julia Töyrylä’s delicate glass spoons or Lapuan Kankurit & minä perhonen’s warm Metsälampi merino wool blanket, which evokes the moving surface of a forest pond.

As part of Institut finlandais’ autumn programme Between Earth and Sky, this collection is on display and on sale until 21 December 2024, in parallel with the Beyond the Horizon exhibition.

Factory 2: Correspondences

28.11.–31.12.2024, Seoul
The works of five Korean and Finnish artists, who work by hand using different natural materials, correspond as if they are exchanging handwritten letters. It creates a temporary “commune” where diverse elements such as people and objects from here and there, light and colour of time and space converge and leave a lasting impression.

Lokal Bazar: Works on Paper

For three consecutive weekends we will host an event that we hope will spark your festive spirit and thoughtful gift-giving. Lokal Bazar: Works on Paper brings together a curated selection of artists’ drawings, paintings and prints on paper.
