Skeletons, plants, forest machines. Landscape modification, vanishing species. Temporality, inevitability, change. Wonderment, sadness, comfort. Coming together, dismantling, building.
The word korjuu (harvest / collecting / repair) is on the one hand associated in our minds with the living, the harvesting, gathering and the changes of seasons, yet on the other with death and broken things. The works in our exhibition deal with the themes of biodiversity loss, repairment, transformation, growth and imagining the new. They also reflect on the role of humans as both nurturers and despoilers of nature.
We bring paintings, sculptures, collages, mixed media works and video works to Galleria Aski.

Gallery Aski
Gallery Aski is an independent art gallery established by the artists of Art House Turku, situated in the midst of an exceptionally diverse oasis of art and culture: Art House Turku.
The gallery is operated by an association called Rettigin kuvataiteilijat ry. The name “Aski”, which, when translated into English, is “pack”, alludes to the history of the old Rettig tobacco factory and also to the gallery’s compact size. Situated on the ground floor of the Art House Turku, the gallery can be found at Nunnankatu 4 (with entrances from both the courtyard and Nunnankatu).
