Julmaa Valoa<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Julmaa Valoa<\/em>, Backlight-festivaalin vuoden 2023 teema, antaa valokuvan ja liikkuvan kuvan keinoin tilaa aineellisen ymp\u00e4rist\u00f6mme hiljaisille todistajille: erilaiset elementit radioaktiivisesta s\u00e4teilyst\u00e4 ilmansaateisiin, kylmyydest\u00e4 mineraaliteollisuuden j\u00e4\u00e4nteisiin, muuntuvat n\u00e4yttelyn teoksissa kuvallisiksi toimijoiksi. N\u00e4in erilaiset v\u00e4kivallan ulottuvuudet ihmisen aikahorisontin ylitt\u00e4vist\u00e4 hitaista prosesseista \u00e4killisiin geopoliittisiin konflikteihin tulevat esille kuvien kautta. N\u00e4yttelykokonaisuutena Julmaa Valoa<\/em> toimiikin tilana kuvien todellisuussuhteen uudelleen arvioimiselle el\u00e4m\u00e4mme mahdollisuuksia kannattelevien elementtien n\u00e4k\u00f6kulmasta.    <\/p>\n\n\n\n
