See our exhibitions here.
K1 Kämp Galleria
13.10.–25.2.
Pentti Sammallahti's photography focuses on shared, transient moments between two living beings. Sammallahti's photographs speak of devotion, tenderness, and emotional bonds — of coexisting with all other life forms together in this world.
The Cable Factory
15.9.–14.1.
The exhibition explores the power structures that define humanity, the concepts of active and anonymous citizenship and the consequences of the colonial movement.
The Cable Factory
15.9.–14.1.
The Autumn 2023 collection exhibition presents an unprecedented exhibition of the work of the pioneering and multi-talented photographer Hilja Raviniemi.
The Cable Factory

The exhibition invites us to contemplate how our societal norms construct and affect the way in which we see and ignore not only certain people, but the actions directed at them.
