Emotional memories, landscapes of the mind and hidden parts of the subconscious; but also encounters. Visions begging to be looked at, without making claims about themselves.
The mind inevitably constructs a narrative around pictures assembled together.
And perhaps, on the side, contributes to the story of life.
Tomorrow, even this moment is merely a memory.
The Album exhibition invites 14 artists to showcase their albums. In the spirit of artists’ books, these pieces open the world of picture albums to the viewer. The exhibition is organised by the Tampere-based Drive In Art Community and hosted by Galleria Koppelo.
By definition, “an album is a collection of similar things, often artistic in nature”. The albums in this exhibition are each a representation of their maker’s artistic view on a subject that bears significance to them.
