LIMBO - exhibition 24.4.-26.4.2025
MUJI Kamppi, Helsinki Finland
LIMBO is an exploration of the state of being in-between. The exhibition delves into the concepts of liminality, boundaries, identity, and limitation. The viewer is invited to contemplate these themes through a diverse collection of artworks. The exhibition features works by nine artists and designers.
The title of the exhibition, LIMBO, refers to a state where definitions are secondary and possibilities lie in the undefined. Fostering reflection on the multiplicity of existence, the range of works includes oil paintings, sculptures, photographs, ceramics, video and textile art, as well as lighting, furniture, and functional objects.

COLLABORATION
The first collaboration together with Jalkanen & Keski-Pomppu will be launching in spring 2024. A series of objects will be created, with focus on local Finnish materials and in craftsmanship.
As the first work, we create a series of lights and the focus is on local materials. The lights are handcrafted from Finnish red clay, shaped into an organic form. The clay comes from the neighboring village of Päivi Keski-Pomppu’s childhood home. The clay is worked by hand in our own workspace. The glass part was made in cooperation with a glassblower in a small village in Kiikoinen and Riihimäki.
Collection contains a lights made of steel, red clay and glass.
The focus is a dialogue of materials, a combination of cold, industrial steel, warm tones of red clay and the shape of the glass blown by the glassblowers. It gives the objects an interesting conversation, it tell a story.
All the products are sculptural, and play at the interface between art and product.
