Join us for cozy afternoon of talkoot, glögi and art as we gather at HIAP Suomenlinna to celebrate the season together. Whether you're in the mood to lend a hand, catch up with us, or just enjoy the atmosphere, you're warmly invited!
Come hang out and see Nora Sayyad's pop-up exhibition "Visible Palestine (Näkyvä Palestiina)" at HIAP Suomenlinna. The exhibition is part of UrbanApa’s miniresidency programme.
Nora Sayyad’s Miniresidency public event is a pop-up photo exhibition titled Visible Palestine, based on her ongoing work. The future exhibition is envisioned in three parts. Portraits feature intimate images that tell the stories of Palestinians and their families, showing how everyday life and resistance coexist. These are supported by interviews collected with Iris Pajunen within the Solidarity Movements workgroup, which also gathers visual documentation of activism and communities that have supported Palestine in Finland and abroad over the decades. The Protests -section aims to bring together street photography from multiple photographers, highlighting the diversity of communal action and grassroots solidarity. It’s a project where photography and collective effort meet.
All are welcome to join for the whole afternoon or just a short while. There will be some snacks and glögi and plenty of seasonal spirit around!
