PISPALA X KIASMA WITH EGS & NINNI LUHTASAARI
EGS is a mysterious Helsinki-based graffiti anthropologist who started his journey in the mid 1980s being inspired by the first wave of Finnish graffiti scene. He operates during day and night time and his idea behind the Day and Night patterns was to create a camouflage for each time of the day.
Multitalented artist Ninni lives and works in Pispala, Tampere and describes herself as a primitive entertainer. The cephalopods of Ninni Luhtasaari are intuitive and confused. They have to adapt themselves to awkward moments and bodily emotions. These creatures blur the fabricated line between humans and animals.
