An exhibition, film and concert series – Kauttua village, Eura, Finland.

Wärttinen slowly wakes up, now walking silently as Voimuksuva caresses them from side to side. ’I’ve laid down on your lap and I’m never going to come out.’ Voimuksuva nods, understanding what they are saying. Voimuksuva laughs. Who would have guessed that we can even live in the same unit. The excavations at Linnavuori show that this group of individuals was somewhat of a stumbling block in their problems and completely forgot that they were living in the great big universe every day. In the trenches, in all layers of time, land and culture, something sparkles. ”The life of a small person” read one text carved into the rock. Satisfying the body’s needs, experiencing safety and keeping thirst at bay kept the little human busy. The aching need to rise as a human species to reach the inhabitants of other solar systems, even for a short greeting… was the motivation of one group. Reproduction and caring for offspring did not suit the lifestyles of these individuals, and thus the species remained short, one-generation. The beings called the human species, were prisoners of their body scrutiny, even though they already had the possibilities to modify their bodies, due to the slow interpretation of the rules of behaviour originating from the religious systems, they were trapped in judging and criticising each other. An exuberant living entity, which lived from the relationship of the images taken by people and their junctions and connections, was nevertheless shaped to take its part as the creator of order. The golden pearl that appeared then is possibly from the 2030s or 2040s.

“Hiittenjösses, how and where did they end up when everything had changed?'“
