Crepusculum

Project8 Gallery
Saturday 3 AugustSaturday 14 September

SASHA HUBER lives and works in Helsinki, Finland. Her provocative and materially exuberant multi-modal works explore the legacies of colonial and post-colonial relationships, particularly as experienced by the African and Caribbean diasporas.

PETRI SAARIKKO is a Helsinki-based artist and designer whose work integrates material artistic investigation with social critique and expertise in design and new media. His work implicitly challenges constructions of national identity, authorship and related political discourse by materially exploring tensions between “real” and “artificial” phenomena.

The Latin noun “crepusculum,” which denotes twilight and transitional thresholds between day and night, also offers a compelling metaphorical framework for exploring fluidity and relational complexity in art. For artists, crepuscular zones can be fertile grounds for embodying tension and interplay, implicitly critiquing rigid categorisations and marking interstitial processes. In this exhibition, crepuscularity is repurposed to reach beyond established visual dichotomies to quietly intimate a complex set of entangled material, social, historical, philosophical and political domains.
