EXHIBITIONS

On Breathing: Eija-Liisa Ahtila

New rhythms appear with Ahtila's pattern of boxes that focus on parts of the tree emerging from fog before fading away. These, along with the sounds of birdsong, the ebb and flow of the tides of the nearby seashore, and wind rustling through the leaves, all create the illusion that the tree itself is breathing.
