On April 9, the paths lead to the SODAS 2123 cultural center, where we’re opening our doors for you to explore and discover!
And there will certainly be plenty to see—we’ll be presenting three new exhibitions, whose themes will encompass through textiles, analog photography, videography, computer games, and virtual reality. The OPEN SODAS programme will feature performances by participants of the ‘Resistance Song Residency’ and Vecera, while the list of open studios will be the largest yet—as many as 20 studios will be open, inviting you to explore the cultural centre’s lesser-known areas! 📍

8:00 PM
🔴 “Resistance Song Residency” listening session with Helena Pulkkinen and Marikki Nyfors
Main Hall
– Helena Pulkkinen. Listening session of work in process
Duration ~10 min
The listening session brings together collected and produced vocals, speech sounds, musical fragments and objects as part of an ongoing research of sound as a carrier of meaning, emotion and resistance. Through shifting melodies and moments of silence, flickering textures, altered voices and everyday objects the mix reimagines the structures of a room as a space where alternative emotional charges can emerge and resonate.
– Marikki Nyfors. Hybrid set – a performative collage of sounds
Duration ~20 min
“A mix of live and set elements, a staggered, messy-chic look rather than perfectly uniform, often recommended for those looking for added density without heavy drama, again: endless possible combinations”.
9:00 PM
🔴 Vecera LIVE
Main Hall
→ OPEN SODAS programme is free of charge and open to all visitors
The event is organized by SODAS 2123.
