Guided tour of the exhibition »Imagine Another Perspective« with curator Peggy Sue Amison and artist Maija Tammi
Tour will be in English.
This tour will include discussions on the works of all three artists of the exhibition Imagine Another Perspective, with an in-depth profile of Maija Tammi’s series Immortal’s Birthday (2017 – 2020). Tammi, an award winning artist and researcher based in Helsinki, explores the threshold between mortality and immortality, science and art, through her photography and video works. She regularly collaborates with marine biologists and musicians, delving into various aspects of science, aesthetics, sickness, time, and (im)mortality. In her series, Immortal’s Birthday, Tammi investigates the hydra, a small fresh-water organism belonging to the class Hydrozoa. Unlike most animals, the hydra can clone itself and regenerate from a cluster of cells without aging; all its cells renew every twenty days, a phenomenon unique among animals. Tammi describes the hydra as a creature that seems straight out of science fiction but is, in fact real. Immortal’s Birthday continues Tammi’s exploration of humanity’s place in the continuum of existence and ageing.
The tour will include discussions on the works of Mandy Barker, who has used photography for over 15 years as a tool to raise awareness about the global issues of plastic pollution, and Caleb Charland, who uses photography to explore unseen energies around us. Charland combines his curiosity for science with a constructive approach to image-making, utilizing everyday objects and fundamental forces.
Curator, Peggy Sue Amison is the Artistic Director of East Wing, a platform for contemporary photography founded in Doha, Qatar.
Maija Tammi is a Finnish artist and Doctor of Arts, whose photographs and videos have been exhibited extensively in Paris, Berlin, Rome, London, New York, and Tokyo. She has published five books and her artworks have been acquired by important institutions such as the Museum of Contemporary Photography in Chicago, Contemporary Art Museum Kiasma in Helsinki, and National Portrait Gallery in London.
