Arrival in Helsinki
Some things just move better than your jumbo sofa. Collecting the components of our exhibition from customs at Vantaa airport.
Jeanne Hoffman and Liza Grobler have collaborated on a number of projects over the past five years – all of these have been visual reactions to so-called “development” and “progress”. The artists have also collaborated on creative workshops with learners to investigate the creative potential of transforming waste. They share a common interest of using humble materials or mass-produced objects to create visual spectacles.
