The exhibition takes you back to the roots of photography, to the fascinating camera obscura. The exhibition dives into building a pinhole camera and taking photos with it. The most imaginative cameras are on display, as well as photographs taken by artists through pinholes. The exhibition at the Craft Museum of Finland 17.9.–4.12.2022 is curated by visual artist Jyrki Markkanen. 

Known for her colourful animal and plant themed knits, textile artist Sirkka Könönen’s (1947-2018) production is on display in the Craft Museum of Finland’s Lobby Gallery 21.12.2019-1.3.2020, in The Colourer of the World – Textile Artist Sirkka Könönen exhibition. Her life was comprehensive as a textile artist, handicraft entrepreneur, and artist, and its abundance is brought out when we step into Sirkka’s colourful, fairy tale world.
