With this presentation, Sutela invites the audience into a world where everything is interconnected: from microscopic life to DIY technologies, from intuition to compost.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2><em>Ave bossa, bow ole<\/em><\/h2>\n<p>The exhibition revolves around systems open to the wider environment\u2014a world made of brains. It challenges the narrow understandings of consciousness that scaffold an anthropocentric logic of value and meaning, while considering interrelationships at all scales.<\/p>\n<p>The starting point of this exhibition is the concept of \u2019tech povera\u2019, a makeshift genre that Sutela coined to describe her approach to technology in the context of art. It refers to the 20th century art historical movement Arte Povera that saw art as a living process rather than a fixed object and materials as meaning. <em>Vermi-Cell<\/em> (2023), a work presented underground at Stroom den Haag, serves as an example of this approach. An earth battery powered sound piece, staged inside and around heaps of worm compost with metals and wire emerging from them, uses energy from the organic, decomposing matter to present a work and as a work.<\/p>\n<p>At the same time as developing <em>Ave bossa, bow ole<\/em>, Jenna Sutela is preparing for her participation in the Pavilion of Finland at the 61st International Art Exhibition \u2013 La Biennale di Venezia, in 2026. For the 2026 Biennale, she will present new work commissioned by <a href=\"https:\/\/frame-finland.fi\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Frame Contemporary Art Finland<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>Date: 4.10.2025 \u2013 9.1.2026<br \/>\nLocation: Stroom Den Haag, Hogewal 1-9, The Hague<br \/>\nOpening: Saturday 4.10.2025, 17:00 CET<br \/>\nAccessibility: Stroom Den Haag&#8217;s premises are accessible for wheelchair users.
