Grönlund–Nisunen on view in Berlin

Grönlund–Nisunen’s exhibition opens at Esther Schipper gallery in Berlin on 20 January and runs through 25 February 2023. The artist duo shares the exhibition space with Ryoji Ikeda and Kaarel Kurismaa.

The new work Scattered Horizon engages visitors in a multi-sensory experience. It presents three swaying lines, which hit the walls of the otherwise dark exhibition space, accompanied by a sound element of three sine wave tones.

“We depend on the stability of our surroundings both physically and psychologically; that is why losing the stabilizing horizon line, and adapting to it, can be experienced either as meditative, thrilling or even uncomfortable, depending on the visitor. Scattered Horizon plays on these associations, but also leaves visitors the freedom to explore their physical presence and emotional response. ” –Excerpt from exhibition text
