Tuomas Linna, mulliks mulliks
Forum Box, Helsinki
24.5. — 16.6.2024
I dance for joy at the beginning of a new life in Aisha Khalid’s garden that is about to flourish, in the footsteps of Richard Long. I build a cradle out of our bed. I am watching power lines and the birds sitting on them with my child, I start composing a lullaby, inspired by Benjamin Patterson’s Ants. I roll the matchbox cars of my childhood down a track I built and I count every question I hear, as Stanley Brouwn counted steps.
The exhibition has been supported by Arts Promotion Centre Finland.
