Galleria Huuto Jätkäsaari, Pikkujätkä
Sally and Mo stand side by side on the banks of a small stream. Slowly they walk into the middle of the stream, stop and face each other, then disappear. In a field of freshly cut grass Sally and Mo experience the wide open space in their surreal way. For this they have brought their generator and an army of fans. The generator produces energy for the fans and Sally and Mo have completed their task.
Arrangement and sounds by Selló-Stína, the original melody from ”Wuthering Heights” by Kate Bush
Sally and Mo are friends who work together on artistic projects where they emphasize on creativity and creation through their experience of the here and now. They work spontaneously and document the process in the form of video performance. They improvise and while doing so they don´t ask for context or purpose. During the process of editing they try to locate and extract moments of their experience in the here and now. The products are then the finished works of performance of photographs, videos or sculptures.
Sally and Mo point out the different and strange can also contain freedom. The outcome can sometimes be funny and border the ridiculous. With their childish naivety and simplicity where nothing is forbidden or banal, they encourage us to relax without demands.
