The photographic exhibition by Finnish artist Tero Kokko invites you to explore the mythology of the Kalevala and how the forces of nature are intertwined with modern identity.
27.8.–25.9.2026 Galleria Joutsenessa Salossa
The sculptures formed from ice come alive under the influence of light. The exhibition is also accessible to the visually impaired thanks to the technique used by the artist. The exhibition presents the book Nature speaks in the Kalevala (Loodus räägib Kalevalas, Luonto puhuu Kalevalassa), which contains information, a lot of perspectives and visual interpretations.
The exhibition Come and discover the Kalevala in a new light. On the border between nature and myth, we can also encounter ourselves.
