VUOSAARI 21 – Tracing good life
15.8.–21.11.2021
Klockriketetatern, KOM-theatre and the Finnish Museum of Photography have been collaborating around different art and culture experiences in the Vuosaari area for the past six years. Together with local people and organizations we have been exploring the secrets of a good life.
This polymorphous collaboration manifested as an arts and culture festival VUOSAARI 21 – Tracing good life in Vuosaari in the fall of 2021.
In October 2021 a publication was released that collects some of the material we have been working with during the Vuosaari 21 project.

An ode to nature, connection, listening and shared joy. The mossy birches, the robust pinewoods, the persistent junipers, the curved willows and the slightly sorrowful spruces invite us to a dance. The songs of the wind and the birds mix together with the mellow tunes of harp, contrabase, saxophone, harmonium and percussions. Aerial dancers soar off the branches of the surrounding trees.

"I sit here. Always. This pond is my living room"
In the northern part of Vuosaari, near the old mall, there's a pond. More often than not, a group of people gathers here. All of their paths leading to the pond have been very different. The Vuosaari 21 team wanted to get to kow the and hear their stories. As it got colder, the storytellig continued at a local pub.
Based on this we created the short film Päähenkilöt, the Protagonists, i which these humane life stories are told by a half fictional character, the so-called janitor of the pond.

Abandoned spaces, lost spaces, found spaces, spaces in between.
A familiar, unknown area and state of mind, constantly changing.
Zone V is a journey to the past, the present and the future,
to different lives and realities.
Zone V is a journey to inner spectacles on the stages of the mind!
A multisensory site sensitive exhibition & performance was a collaboration with the artist collective KOKIMO. It was inspired by the stories, feelings and realities of the local people in Vuosaari – and by the old school building itself.
