URGENT - Residency for Artworks is a platform to ponder upon material agency and the role of the artwork as a performer through performance and shared experience. The project aims to give a central stage to an art object and engage in interactions and discussions through its existence.

The performance stems from the necessity to reconsider our relationship to objects in the times of overproduction and exhausting consumption. The invited object is the voice bringing forth this question.

 

Launched in 2020 by L. Puska, the project runs with three residency guests during the year 2023. Each object and the performance is handed over for The Finnish Cultural Institute for the Benelux for a short period of time.

​

The currents of the performance can be followed via Puska's Instagram.
