The Infiltrators
Surreal observations of three sites
23.1.-10.2.2019
VÄRE V2 gallery, Aalto University

In this photo series artist group ART4 is asking straight forward, yet extremely complex questions: What is reflected and what is filtered? The Infiltrators attempt to emerge into the surroundings and all previous expectations become unclear. The photos are viewing the surreal, taking a peek into the irrational. How to be present in a moment and letting go of the expected? How to observe the surroundings without demands? The photos are suggesting to taking a break from the everyday life. They reflect, filter and capture an omnipresent dreamlike world. The group is taking a leap into an adventure of the unplanned situations.

The art project has taken place during the time period between 2014-2018 in three various surroundings: a swamp, the archipelago and the city. The photos are presented without photo manipulation.
