postcards from europe.

a couple of weeks ago I was told about an interesting project - I had immediately decided to take part in it with Jacopo.
our personal contribution to Postcards from Europe:
our postcard from Finland.
"Postcards from Europe has been set up by a group of young artists and producers based in the UK who are working together to put on an exhibition of new creative work by emerging artists from across Europe. [...] Young international artists taking part in the project will be asked to produce a ‘postcard’ representing the place in which they live and work. This ‘postcard’ will act as a starting point for conversation between young artists from different cultures on the themes of place, European identity, and individual creative practices. [...] The exhibition of artists’ postcards will take place from 1st Oct - 15th Nov at Wem Town Hall, an emerging arts venue in the West Midlands. A publication featuring the work of the artists alongside accompanying essays and interviews will be produced in tandem with the exhibition."
