Kuvan Kevät 2024 showcased the works of up to 51 fine arts students. The exhibition was be spread across the Kuva/Tila gallery, other floors of the Mylly building and outdoor spaces around the Sörnäinen campus: the massive empty lot next on Haapaniemenkatu will create an exceptional exhibition space for land art, installations, and performances.
Works were arranged in the gallery space to engage in conversation with each other, while forming thematic ensembles. Through abstract visual expression, the viewer was taken to the intersections of science, art, and technology, through memory and trauma, towards a speculative future, encounters between species and finally to the warm spirit of humanism.
