GROWING SEASON, June 3-29, 2024 Growing Season exhibition is held at Taito Gallery at CraftCorner in Helsinki (Eteläesplanadi 1). The exhibition is part of Biocolours2024 conference, an international and multidisciplinary conference held in Helsinki, June 4-7, 2024. The exhibition presents the works of 11 artists: Karin Altmann, Jonatan E. Jurkowski, Katja Syrjä, Jeanette Schäring, Krista Virtanen, Nina Nisonen, Tupu Mentu, Heidi Pietarinen & Amna Qureshi, Hannele Köngäs and Outi Mäkelä. Bio-based colors and working with natural colors are at the center of the works of each artist. Enthusiasm is deep, work is experimental and exploratory, emanating from colors or building expression through them. The works presented in the exhibition convey the authors’ research approach to colour, the possibilities of bio-based dyes, the history of natural colors and the new development of their use. There is also kindness to the fiber’s own color and undyed material at work.
