Description

This is the first large-scale museum exhibition of Outi Pieski’s work in the UK, bringing together early and rarely exhibited works, recent paintings and installations, and a new installation created during her artist residency at Porthmeor Studios, St Ives in January 2024. Pieski is based in Ohcejohka (Utsjoki), Finland, in the region referred to as Sápmi, the traditional territory of the Sámi people that extends across northern Norway, Sweden, Finland and the Kola Peninsula in Russia. Through an artistic practice that encompasses painting, printmaking, photography, video and installation, Pieski explores the relationship between humans and their environment, raising questions around ancestral knowledge and Indigenous peoples’ rights.
