What does it mean to be an artist in a global economy marked by precarity and insecurity? How do working conditions affect one's mental health? And how do bodies react to accumulated stress and anxiety? These and other questions will be addressed in the participatory workshop 'Shoulder to Shoulder'. Artist Miriam Poletti invites art workers living in Helsinki to participate in a sewing circle in which they will connect the threads of their personal experiences.

No prior sewing experience necessary!

This event is part of 'On the Texture of Feelingsβ€˜ residency and exhibition at MyymΓ€lΓ€2, Helsinki, 30 June - 16 July 2023.

Participation is free of charge. As the number of participants is limited, a binding registration must be made in advance via our registration form by 25 June here.
