performance art

WYRD at B-Gallery, Turku Finland, from 20th to 22nd of June, was our first actual work together. For two days we were working inside the gallery weaving our destinies together and inviting people to follow the act.

Wyrd is a net that is woven inside gallery during two days.
It is a ritual, a performance and an installation.

Wyrd is a myth, a method and landscape. It is water, blood, and light.
Wyrd is also a dream, act and time – one, two and three tied together.
Wyrd is past, present, and future. It is January, June and the rest of life.

Wyrd is a work about our love.
It is woven of things that we have experienced together, and of things that we have found together.

Wyrd is two rituals, which get plaited together.

Rune work

We made a walking ritual together in Viljandi, Estonia 8th of June 2016.

Walk was a walkabout, a ritual, a place for contemplation and discovery.

I had intended to walk by myself but many things had happened since I first came up with the idea of the art-piece. On Tuesday 7^th of June I asked my fiancé to make the walk together with me; the walk had become something else that I had expected.

The route was drawn on a map that was provided to people as invitations to join the walk or see us go and return. We walked about 20km and collected evidence of the places and experiences that we came across with. We picked flowers and I carried the growing bucket on my hands.

On the installation the walk can be experienced.
The installation is a map of Viljandi the 8^th of June.
It is also a map of beginning of summer, ecstasy and dreams.

It is an altar.
