The satellite of the Onoma co-operative’s summer exhibition Hidden approaches multisensory experiences through art, design and craftsmanship, now also in Lokal’s homely environment. The artists featured in the Hidden exhibition reflect on the meanings and possibilities of the various senses in their own work. A number of factors contribute to how someone experiences and senses a work or an object. Often, however, the interpreter is strongly led by the creator of the work or object. The satellite exhibition is co-curated by Laura Sarvilinna and Katja Hagelstam.

 

Artists participating in the satellite exhibition:

Klaus and Elina Aalto / Erna Aaltonen / Antrei Hartikainen / Hemmo Honkonen / Sasha Huber / Mari Isopahkala / Minja Kolehmainen / Eija Koski / Tero Kuitunen / Nathalie Lautenbacher & Naoto Niidome / Jenni Mikkonen / Tuulia Penttilä / Renata Schirm (Jakowleff) / Theresa Storbacka / Maija Toukolehto
