Mari Sunna participates in a group exhibition Touch Me: Nudes from the Miettinen Collection at Kunstraum Potsdman, in Germany. The exhibition, featuring works from artists such as David Hockney, Barthélémy Toguo and Tom of Finland, among many others, runs through 23 March 2022.
“Nudity obscures and obliterates, discloses, attracts and rejects. The nude is the oldest artistic genre and the most enigmatic at that. To this very day it awkwardly bridges high art and pornography. Such work can be both at the same time: a source of erotic stimulation and a work of art. At this backdrop different aspects will be tackled: nudity in the context of ideals, self-determination or homosexuality are only a few topics.”
