Raija Malka & Kaija Saariaho: Blick

Visual artist Raija Malka and composer Kaija Saariaho will take over Amos Rex’s exhibition space in a new and experiential way next summer. The work is painterly, spatial and musical all at once, offering visitors an opportunity to shape the space with their own creativity.

The exhibition title, Blick (Gaze), is a reference to visual artist Wassily Kandinsky’s poem from 1912 that is included in the soundscape by Kaija Saariaho. The gazes of the two artists are brought together in a three-dimensional space.

The exhibition is a multisensory experience that invites people to stay. In a world made up of the colours and sounds of Malka and Saariaho, visitors can build their own arrangements.
