Program during Konstrundan

Jan-Erik Andersson's art installation Life on a Leaf is an artist residence, but also a visitor attraction, event and meeting space. During the Konstrundan we can have an open house, and Jan-Erik Andersson could possibly tell us about the house and its details. Jarkko Räsänen, the house's artist-in-residence for 2025, could talk about his work.
