Johanna Häiväoja: "O"

The work is the main element of the installation "O" and can be presented separately as an independent artwork.

"O" was an exhibition with a light and sculpture installation in a Chapel near Rouen, France. Music for the work was composed by Sylvie Noel.  

The chapel had served as a refuge for women during difficult times, among other things. In this work, cries and weeps can be heard, tears may be seen, but also a joy bought by light and music.
