Exhibition Review - Juha Pekka Matias Laakkonen:'Within a Hollow Sphere' Tommaso Corvi-Mora, London till 23rd Dec 2015.

With Juha, I am eavesdropping on a log

a cinema of unspoken thought.- Drenched Co

Comment: "Juha harbours post human ideals. His perspectives are fluid and his identities many. He is at once the maker and the made. His art wants you to experience, through his artifacts, the 'performance', the landscape, the trees and allow the event to become central, to change you. Either that or you leave in a hurry!" - Raj.
