SPLICE
Re-examining Nature

20 May to 12 November 2017, Oulu Museum of Art / Finland

SPLICE – an international art exhibition curated by Nina Czegledy in collaboration with the
Bioartsociety and produced in partnership with the Oulu Museum of Art focuses on our changing
environment and relationship to Nature. Since time immemorial, we have admired the fundamental order
of Nature when looking for inspiration, interpretation and explanations. In more recent times,
developments both intentional and unintentional have shaped our physical environment as well as our
collective mindscape. This gradual transformation brings together existing and emerging ideas,
beings and phenomena, creating unexpected possibilities and connections. The paradigm shifts also
create new challenges for artists who question and comment on these issues through their
works. SPLICE examines established concepts of the environment, the processes influencing the
ongoing changes as well as the emerging personal and collective notions about Nature. The exhibition
presents crossover works from contemporary perspectives, revealing current interpretations of the
world we live in.

SPLICE features artworks by the following artists: Lauri Anttila (FIN), Risto-Pekka Blom (FIN),
Alexandra Daisy Ginsberg (UK) & Sacha Pohflepp (GER), Antye Greie (FIN/GER), Ilkka Halso (FIN),
Kalle Hamm (FIN), Pekka & Teija Isorättyä (FIN), Tellervo Kalleinen & Oliver Kochta-Kalleinen (FIN),
Antero Kare (FIN), Olga Kisseleva (RUS), Carolin Koss (FIN/GER), Mia Mäkelä (FIN), Agnes Meyer-
Brandis (GER), Tuula Närhinen (FIN), Kira O'Reilly (IRE), Anu Osva (FIN), Johanna Rotko (FIN), Tibor
Szemző (HUN), Leena Valkeapää & Oula A. Valkeapää (FIN) and Jana Winderen (N).
