Story and photographs by Laura Laukkanen
The celebrated Himona fine art degree show ended in May. Some of the degree works are on display again already in summer 2013.

Laura Laukkanen's installation Aineisto (Matter) and Ismo Torvinen's Fogbass are both in Pyhtää in Stockfors Art Fair as well in Padasjoki in Ars Auttoinen summer exhibition.

The artists behind the works have been busy recreating the installations just after the graduation. In order to execute the installations Laukkanen used the recycled material from degree exhibition as well some newly cast gelatine sculptures. Both version are site specific and unique.

The summer has been artwise recompensing for Ismo Torvinen. Torvinen's fogbass project was never fully completed during the degree show. The optical fire alarms in the degree show galleries reacted to the fog. As a result Torvinen diplayed in the degree show a video work called "How to Make a Fogbass".
Fogbass in Stockfors looks almost like from Tarkovsky film |
A genuine artistic tribute to the world of tutorials. The smoke rings created by the machine were only seen on screen.
Now the fogbass works. Check the smoke rings in real life in Pyhtää and the whole Do it Yourself Spectacle in full swing in Padasjoki in Ars Auttoinen.
