1975 Mikkeli
All the works in the exhibition represent temporariness in their own way. I feel that the policies of the modern society are often temporary in nature. It seems that in many cases people only try to find a temporary solution, hoping that they may later find a better one. The traces of such short-sightedness are being redressed in many fields. However, quite often these temporary solutions turn out to be permanent solutions, even if they have not been designed or built in accordance with the principles of enduring use. Technical development is often too fast from the point of view of established procedures and the acquisition of expertise. The meaning of conventions, objects and things will change, wane or vanish altogether.
Through my works, I often discuss the changes in modernization and technical development that become evident in the social, cultural and personal levels. At the same time I examine the reaction to these changes.
