Nanna Hänninen, a Finnish photographic artist, focuses on the themes of insecurity and otherness as well as climate change by depicting the individual’s experience in society. more Hänninen adresses the need for and the impossibility of control and as well of the burning issue of the day: climate change and the choices it brings, which we who are living today must consider. The group of works deals with anxieties, existential threats and survival in the jungle of emotions. This applies not only to the artist and her experiences but also to us, the viewers of her works. The series, interlaced with texts by Laura Kuurne and Tuomas Nevanlinna, explores the importance of the present as well as time itself and its relativity. The past is just a memory and the future is a construction of the mind, and between these two is here and now, the only moment on which we have direct influence. NOW IS NOW by Nanna Hänninen was published on the occasion of her retrospective exhibition How about the Future? which is on display at the Serlachius Museums Gösta in 2020. Show more
