Location: Vantaan taidemuseo Artsi

The One-Day Stand No.3 comes to our audiences in collaboration with Vantaa Art Museum Artsi and within the context of the exhibition, Steps in the City. As the exhibition explores the cultural and visual dimensions of urban space, performance art brings these themes into the present moment through live and lived action and direct engagement. Its ephemeral and embodied nature resists fixed meanings, inviting audiences to witness and participate in shifting dynamics of presence, power, and public space. Whether through subtle gestures or bold interventions, performance art creates fleeting yet impactful encounters, transforming the way we experience the public and private spaces and the relationships within it.
Location: Vantaa Art Museum Artsi
Time: Thursday, April 10th, 2025 at 5 PM-8 PM
