The exhibition reveals the hidden meanings and humour of everyday life<\/h3>\n

In an exhibition of sculptures, installations and media works, Aho observes the division, partitioning, and separation suggested by the title of the exhibition. The works convey wonder and the need to explore, but there is also a bit of humor in them.<\/p>\n

The works explore these themes both at the level of the individual and the everyday, and in our society and culture in general. Aho looks at everyday things and objects we take for granted and how we use them from a new perspective. Aho’s works convey a sense of wonder and the need to explore, but they also contain a touch of humour.<\/p>\n\n <\/div>\n

An integral part of the exhibition is an exhibition text written by the Turku-based writer Jaakko Yli-Juonikas (b. 1976), which also functions as an independent work. The text offers different perspectives and ways of experiencing the works in the exhibition. Jaakko Yli-Juonikas is the author of some of the most original works in Finnish contemporary literature, including the acclaimed Neuromaani (2012).<\/p>\n\n
