Noelia Mora Solvez: Farming

Kunsthalle Seinäjoki, Seinäjoki

  • 30.6.2022–10.12.2022

In the exhibition of Noelia Mora Solvez, who exhibits in Finland for the first time, the viewer enters a peculiar world.

 

‘Farming’ is a colourful and energetic exhibition consisting of video installations, sound and performance. The exhibition creates a humorous zoomorphic world in its quest to define the human animal. Each work is based on and inspired by animals we see on farms. Amuzing human-sheep, dynamic bird-people, poetic fish figures and a giant worm-man make up the visual imagery of the exhibition. The works raise several questions related to, for example, a good life, identity, the concept of gender and various social norms. As a whole, ‘Farming’ reflects the social structures of society through people presented as other animals.

Noelia Mora Solvez (b. 1975) is a Spanish-born, video- and performance artist who has been living and working in Aarhus, Denmark, for a long time. Her practice focuses on her interest in society and its structures, norms and regulations. She is a graduate of the Aarhus Art Academy and has had solo exhibitions in Denmark and Norway. Her works have been acquired for the collections of AROS Art Museum and KØN Gender Museum. The ‘Farming’ exhibition has previously been on display at Gallery Snerk, Den Hå Prestehall and Kunsthal Ulys.

During the first years in Kalevan Navetta, the Kunsthalle Seinäjoki explored the roles and relevance of animals in contemporary art and society inspired by the urban-rural context and the surrounding countryside. The ‘Farming’ exhibition is the third and final part of this animal trilogy. The previous exhibitions were ‘What’s it like to be an animal?’, a group exhibition based on Helena Telkänranta’s book in autumn 2020, and Gustafsson & Haapoja Siat – Pigs at the end of 2021.
