Around the Bucket - Art in the courtyards and paths The hunters of the lost everyday life of the Art Pilot of the Cultural Cell Blueberry Eirola and Tiina Vehkaperä They have created their first work in the Kalajoki Jokipuisto park at the end of August. The collection of the lost everyday hunters in Hailuoto in the yard of the old school (Luovontie 61 A, 90480 Hailuoto) is on 14 October. Hailuoto Whitefish Market's workshop output unfinished. Sinikka and Tiina will leave for Sievi and Alavieska for the first time on 19 September 2023. In Sievi, you can participate in community art in the community space Lusina (Haikolantie 18, 85410 Sievi) from 12 am to 3 pm, in Alavieska by the tree trunk near the parish building (Papinpolku 1, 85200) on the riverfront from 4 pm to 6 pm.
In Pyhäjoki, the first community art workshop was held on 18 September at 12-15 in Kirkkopuisto. Participation is free of charge and it is suitable for everyone. The next joint artwork in Pyhäjoki Church Park will be on Wednesday 27 September from 3 pm to 6 pm.
You can participate by coming to the venue at the times of the art workshops. If you wish, bring yourself an unnecessary metal blanket or take one (size about 10x10cm) to the collection point of the local library in question.
In the next few months, hunters of lost everyday life will gather together in Pyhäjoki, Alavieska, Sievi and Hailuoto, together with the residents of the municipality, a piece of everyday treasures for each municipality. The first community artwork was built in Kalajoki last Monday 28 August at 2 pm. You can admire it in the Jokipuisto park near the town hall.
The starting point of the work is based on the tradition of a rug and a patchwork, but the shape is shaped as the project progresses in a place-specific way. In the participatory work, we hunt for the keys whose boxes have been lost, odd wreaths, slackers, chains and other metal nozzles that we keep, because we don't really know how to give them up. The work can continue its life in the hands of the locals even after the workshops.
The following agreed community art workshops for lost everyday hunters:
19.9. Sievi at 12-15 community space in Lusina
19.9 Alavieska from 16:00 to 18:00 by the trunk of a riverside tree
27.9. Pyhäjoki 15-18 Church Park
14.10. Hailuoto Whitefish Market
Artists from the ‘Around the world – art in the yards and on the paths’ pilot will use the methods of community art to create a collection of works entitled ‘The hunters of lost everyday life’. Artists in the art pilot are Tiina Vehkaperä and Sinikka Eirola. The whole is the responsibility of Siikajoki Cultural Association Vimma ry. The art pilot is part of the Culture Cell – Collaboration and impact on cultural services project. It promotes the cultural activities of municipalities, the realisation of the objectives of the Act on the Cultural Activities of Municipalities and, in particular, the regional development task of the Act in the region. The project is funded by the Ministry of Education and Culture.
In Alavieska and Sievi there will be work sessions, which will become clearer during the first workshop visit.
