#ArsBioarctica
Vibrant Bodies
Hele Okkonen had their Ars Bioarctica residency in July 2025. What began as a study of regionally endangered lichens shifted into a broader perspective, as the vastness of the landscape made a deep impression on them. Gilbbesjávri gave them a gift, a reminder to return to the body, the ground of their artistic practice.
