THE DAWN IS RED WHEN THE DEW COAGULATES
Pauline Curnier Jardin, Kiasma-Helsinki >> 11.10.2024–23.2.2025
Scénographie de l’exposition et co-création des free-standing joys : Tunnel of Love, Luna Kino, Le Tombeau
Mix-médias
In the ample space offered by the museum’s fifth floor, Pauline Curnier Jardin – in collaboration with set designer Rachel Garcia – designs a twilight landscape with changing tones, composed of a series of spectacular free-standing installations. The ‘free standing joys’ are ephemeral islands of passion, self-supporting constructions floating in space without the support of the museum walls. The panorama they create questions the link between the culture, rituals and architecture of entertainment and some of the great passions of our society such as sexuality, war and religion.
The exhibition has been curated by Patrik Nyberg, Piia Oksanen and Max Hannus, curators of temporary exhibitions at Kiasma.
