Program during Konstrundan

During Konstrundan, Ahonen’s video artwork Hetken olen Omenamato will be on view. Through themes of dress, play, and adulthood, the work explores the question: if you could be anything for a moment, what would you be? Everyday adult life is often experienced as a performance-driven hamster wheel. The piece invites people to reflect on their own daily lives through a sense of playfulness. The duration of the video artwork is 5 minutes.
