Matthew Cowan, Wildness Makes This World
Kunsthalle Seinäjoki, Finland
10 December 2020 —
06 March 2021
Wildness Makes This World is a participatory project by artist Matthew Cowan, Seinäjoki Kunsthalle, the professional orchestra Laitakaupungin Orkesteri and people from the area of Seinäjoki that explores wildness as a mode of being.
This new exhibition is the result of an artistic survey in collaboration with local people, museums and musicians, seeking traces and modes of wildness, environments and actions that can invoke an understanding of wildness as a mode of being. Through these interactions, new artworks have been produced. The works cover a range of responses to the idea of wildness, how it is experienced, what it might sound like, what it might look like, and how it is understood through historical sources.
