Polina Choni’s exhibition is inspired by the rituals and observations of everyday life. Her practice involves experimenting with natural materials, heating, mixing, and creating as a form of meditation and healing. Through these actions she fosters self-awareness and connection with nature, creating a new reality based on simple joys and repetitive acts of daily life. This process reflects a journey where ordinary actions become powerful acts of creation, reflection, and restoration.
Curator: Dana Neilson
Polina Choni‘s residency in autumn 2024 at HIAP is supported by Goethe-Institut Finnland and organised in the context of the Ukraine Solidarity Residency Programme. Her two part exhibition project is supported by the Kone Foundation.
