Nature is enigmatic. Strong and noble, yet fragile and fleeting. Tamed or wild, groomed or untouched, influenced and altered by humans. Bright and beautiful, yet simultaneously dark and ominous. It is a sacred refuge from which all has evolved. In the exhibition "In Bloom", the awe-inspiring meets the delicate, the beautiful encounters the dangerous, and the familiar confronts the unknown.
We invite you to join us for the opening panel of Fotografiska's summer exhibition "In Bloom", where five participating artists will come together with Jessica Jarl, the director of Fotografiska's international exhibitions, to delve into their artistic visions. Joining the talk are Cig Harvey (US), Inka & Niclas (SWE), Helene Schmitz (SWE), and Santer Tuori (FIN), who will discuss the depiction of the reciprocal and contradictory world of humans and nature in their work.
ABOUT THE EXHIBITION "IN BLOOM"
A blend of contemporary photography, video, sculpture, and installations highlights nature's placement in contemporary art. The beauty, richness, fragility, and diversity of nature are represented by 17 contemporary artists, all of whom are interested in understanding, discovering, and expressing themselves in this world. Together, they have created an inspiring and conceptual philosophical reflection on the cycle of life and death and the variability of time. Among the renowned international artists of the exhibition "In Bloom", acclaimed Estonian artist Heikki Leis is also represented.
