ARTISTS OF GAP LAB COLLABORATIVE PROJECT WITH EMMA ANNOUNCED

The seven artists chosen for OFF THE LAB have been announced. The collaborative project promotes diversity in the Finnish cultural sector and highlights collaboration between the artists as well as with the museum. The work result of the group selected through an open call will be displayed at EMMA – Espoo Museo of Modern Art this autumn.

The selected artists are Natalia Castrillón, Majella Clarke, Tiago Martins Pinto, Anna Olkinuora, Sade Risku, Camila Rosa and Laura Sariola.
