MAIJA VAINONEN

MUSEUM OF ALL THINGS IMAGINABLE

Viiskulma 20.2.-2.3.2008

Maija Vainonen’s exhibition consists of two parts of a house; a cupboard and a chamber. The chamber is full of everyday items, such as papers, boxes, pens and pencils, sketches, and dishes. The chamber is where the sacred pictures are. The house describes the artist herself.

”I told Marta that each of us has two homes – one actual home with a fixed location in time and space, and a second that is infinite, with no address and no chance of being immortalized in architectural plans – and that we live in both of them simultaneously.”
From House of Day, House of Night
(Dom dzienny, dom nocny) by Olga Tokarczuk
