The Echo of Nike Choir
 
Linda Sestrajcic (b. 1989)
Stockholm, Sweden
 
A poster with still images making a mini-series of the video piece The Echo of Nike Choir. The video consists of fragmented pieces of stories, told by seven women of the group * Nike Women.
 
* Nike Women is a group consisting of women with disability pension. The group started as a integration- and educational project, but also serving as social meeting place to overcome exclusion and isolation.
 
My first encounter with the Nike Women was through my mother, who is a member of the group.
 
It started with the project Dedicated to the Nike Women, where I organized a private vernissage and dinner for the group in their meeting facilities. This with the aim to together with the women create a platform for art discussion outside of the established art world.
 
This inspired me to develop the relationship to the women and to continue working with them. I invited the women to tell stories from their lives during a film set situation, without demands of specific topics or having a pre-written manuscript. Which created an open and comfortable situation where they could speak freely. The collected footage became the film piece The Echo of Nike Choir.

If you wish, you can transfer information from your old user profile to your new one. However, this action is not recommended, since a part of your old profile may be corrupt. ( https://support.google.com/com/chrome/answer/142059?hl=en )

This artwork, User Profile, observes the material dimensions of portraying things and interacting digitally. For instance, while surfing in the internet it is painful to think of the actual cooling modules needed to keep the data centers going, thus enabling the googling itself.

According to the new syllabus of the Finnish comprehensive school, IT should be used while teaching any of the subjects. This, however, does neither portray or discuss the material grounds of the digital culture.

This artwork reminds how producing one’s own digital images is strongly built through co-operating with the interests of the owners of the given platform. This being the case, the visibility and the transparence of exchanging information between the owners and the actors is not always reciprocal.

“My eyes hurt – flame retardant chemicals in the veins?”

Pipsu Isola is interested in the preconditions of artistic actions aswell as in strenghtening the self-determination of an artist. Isola’s work often portrays the subjects next to the obervations guided by presumptions, by attaching other, suprising details of the given space to the actual artwork. Isola is one of the eight co-founders of Oksasenkatu 11 gallery. She has graduated in 2009 from the department of painting at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts. Her exhibition On line can be seen at Pisto Gallery, 24th Oct – 18th Nov, in Vantaa.

Arabella

Aurora Reinhard (b. 1975)
Lives and works in Helsinki, Finland.

Aurora Reinhard is an visual artist who has observed gender identity and the stereotypes attached to the binary gender structure in a very attentive way. Her experimental documentary Boygirl (2002) won the International media art award from ZKM Center for Art and Media Karlsruhe, Germany.

In her early career Aurora Reinhard has worked mainly with video and photography but has now moved more towards multidimensional mediums by sculpting hyper realistic objects fetishizing the everyday. Her most famous piece Flowers (2006) is made of gloves with artificial fingernails and it is in the collection of German Historical Museum.

Yösäilö Gallery presents Aurora Reinhard’s photograph Arabella (2015) from her ongoing series Perfect that includes both photography and objects.
