AN OCTOPUS\u2019S GARDEN OF SILLY DELIGHTS<\/strong>
Ulvi Haagensen<\/strong> <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In a world on the brink of ecological disaster;
a world coming to terms with a deadly virus;
a world where belligerent and inflammatory politics endeavours to entice and control us;
a world where big tech sees and knows more than we\u2019d like;
a world where narcissism and lying seem to be accepted ways to behave;
I present to you you
AN OCTOPUS\u2019S GARDEN OF SILLY DELIGHTS
At least one thing we can be certain of in these uncertain times is that octopuses have beautiful gardens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ulvi Haagensen<\/b>, born and trained in Sydney, Australia, has been living in Tallinn for many years. She has a background in drawing and sculpture and is currently doing a PhD at the Estonian Academy of Arts researching the boundaries and connections between art and everyday life. She has exhibited in Australia, Estonia, Lithuania, Sweden, Finland, Hungary, Latvia, Russia and South Korea, and has works in public collections in Australia and Estonia.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MORFOSIS<\/strong>
Ihan Toomik, Andreas Kivisild<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

MORFOSIS consists of several objects that can be worn in several ways. Morfosis as transfiguration stems from the metamorphoses of daily living. For example, when dressing for work a person embodies their occupation and starts behaving like part of the organisation. Later, at home, the same person may act and look utterly different. In a similar manner we change ourselves in other everyday situations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We have been discussing the kind of attributes that apply to wearable jewellery. What would we want to wear on a daily basis? Which values, functions and practical implications would this jewellery carry? Our conversation took us to the shapeshifting belt buckle that embodies our daily metamorphoses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Ihan Toomik<\/b> is a freelance artist and a designer. He graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 2013. He also teaches 3D modelling. <\/span>Andreas Kivisild<\/b> is a freelance artist and a designer. He graduated from the Estonian Academy of Arts in 2012.<\/span><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The exhibition is supported by the Cultural Endowment of Estonia<\/em>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
