On now · until Sun, 22 Nov 2026 at Cultural Centre Stoa, Helsinki
About this event
You have until Sunday, 22 November 2026 to see the exhibition Häiriköt-päämaja & Eläinoikeusakatemia: Reality as We Don't Know It at Cultural Centre Stoa, Helsinki. It's free to attend.
Animals are in front of you, behind you, on top of you and inside you. You may not see them, but they can see you.
Although many times as many members of other species are reared and slaughtered each year around the world and in Finland as there are humans, our attention is focused almost exclusively on humans. This exhibition by Häiriköt-päämaja and Eläinoikeusakatemia draws attention to places we usually prefer not to look. And as we look at the others, we realise that they have been watching us the whole time.

In the exhibition, works by Jari Tamminen, Laura Gustafsson, Ville Salervo and Hanna Kukko explore the theme through means such as counter-advertisements, production equipment used in the animal industry and comic book techniques.
