Slot machine
Susanna Vuorio (b. 1977)

This the first time I take part in an exhibition in a poster form. I had the challenge of choosing a work that would work as a print. This is why I decided on a work that has a graphic, drawing-like character, and has not been previously publicly exhibited.

“Slot machine” continues a series of works that I begun in 2014 on the theme of shopping centers. The Yösäiliö gallery was previously a bank and my work also deals with money. The subject matter is very commonplace. Today people have addictions, routines, hope and misfortune. I leave the interpretation to the viewer as to what is loneliness or selfishness, what are reasons or consequences, where life takes one.

Susanna Vuorio, b. 1977, is a painter who deals in his work with contemporary social phenomena. She does not use models or reference images, instead her works are created through a spontaneous, improvisatory process of painting. Painting is to her a form of empathy, a way to become conscious of what is going on here. Ms. Vuorio has exhibited her paintings at several Finnish galleries and museums. Her works are in Finnish State Art Collection and Tampere Art Museum’s collection, among others.

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.
