As behoves the ritual, there was pea soup, mustard and beer on offer, this time served by Servica, of course.

The organic […]
The Finnish Association of Architects (SAFA) asked Jaana and me to talk at the architects’ conference held at the Sibelius House in Lahti on the subject Everyday insights.

Arjen alkemiaa -trilogia (Tuhkimo, Ruusunen ja Oikea Prinsessa) nähtiin kokonaisuudessaan Suomen Valokuvataiteen museossa 2007. Mielen alkemiaa -trilogia (Harry Potter, Matrix ja Avatar layer) on työnalla ja osittain kiertää jo maailmalla. Avaruuden alkemiaa -trilogia tulee päättämään alkemiaa -aiheisten näyttelykokonaisuuksien sarjan. Entisaikojen alkemistit pyrkivät muuttamaan arvottoman arvokkaaksi. Alkemiaa -trilogia pyrkii samaan tässä ajassa, niin arjen, mielen kuin ideologioiden tasolla.
