Finally got the chance to share some photos from my performance at the @starptelpa festival that took place in June this year. The experience was enriching, and a part of my heart will always be in Riga. (And if you're wondering, yes, I was eating a lollipop during the performance.)

Around this time last year, I was preparing for my residency at TOKAS in Tokyo. In this photo, you can see me explaining my idea for a durational performance piece to the wood shop master in Tokyo, seeking assistance for its construction.

While in Japan, I explored the notion of process/processing in the context of the Japanese ways of making things. This exploration involved the close observation of the elements of space, body, materials, and duration in crafts traditions, and also an effort to connect to the supernatural dimensions of what takes place in the making process.

Ten years ago, when I was designing the visuals for my first solo show, "GONE WILD," little did I know how my artistic practice would evolve. Interestingly, in retrospect, I can already discern the performative aspects of my approach to objects, even evident in the postcard I designed for this show, a quality which became apparent to me only a few years later when I moved to Helsinki. It's truly astonishing when seemingly unrelated experiences suddenly converge, and you recognize that throughout all these years, you've been carefully guided on your journey, even during moments of feeling utterly lost.

During my daily walks on Suomenlinna Island while I was doing my residency @hiap_suomenlinna, I started negotiating with the wind, waves, sun, trees, and birds in an attempt to strike a sort of deal with them. The deal was that in three months, during the Open Studios event, if I took some people with me to a specific spot on the island and we waited in silence, we would sense something sublime throughout the day. Personally, I was expecting to encounter a bird, so I brought a long stick with me. The duration of this piece was about 7 hours.

On the 23rd of August 2021, an announcement was published on the Helsingin Sanomat website in which artist Parsa Kamehkhosh, called for five volunteers to take part in a series of his durational performances titled “Saturdays.” Artist spent 16 hours on a Saturday, from 8:00 in the morning to midnight (00:00), with each stranger. Each of the five days was documented in two photos, one of when the artist met the participant in the morning and one before they split. Throughout the day, some objects were also collected by the artist as tokens of the highlights of that day.
