Artists' Island 2023

Artists’ Island 2023 is a group exhibition of 28 artists on Harakka Island in September.

The artists of the exhibition work at the Harakka Artists’ House and the exhibition is curated by Anna Jensen and Eliisa Suvanto.

Harakka Island, off Kaivopuisto Park in Helsinki, is an island of artists, but it is also an island of and for birds, nature reserves, Helsinki residents and, above all, an island of the sea. 

The island is a place, but it is also time, distance, duration, atmosphere, a vanishing point of extremes, an intersection of permanence and change, and the subject of policy-making. 

These concepts form the thematic starting point for the group exhibition, which is built on the terms of nature and the environment, in interaction with the artists and the island, using the existing and building on the past.
