Käännekohta - Opening of the Exhibition

Reaching your thirties is an achievement for any festival, especially for a music video festival. Therefore the content of this year’s festival is built around the “thirties” theme; exploring crises, working life, new paths and future. However the contemporary art exhibition delves into identity, self-growth and queer themes. What kind of expectations and battles does a patriarchal society impose? How can you feel too much and too little at the same time? Can we give ourselves permission to be everything and fluid, without limits?

I go round, elliptical
Watch me orbit this
I keep repeating myself
There must be more than this
I don’t know why I can’t change
There ain’t no groundhogs here

There’s just me in my garden
Howling at the moon when it’s round and clear
– Kae Tempest
