Colectivo Mustarinda

Espacio Trapezio, Madrid

On the occasion of ARCOmadrid #FocusFinland, espacio trapézio invites Mustarinda, not-for-profit finnish association, whose objective is to foster sustainable values and lifestyle, ecological and cultural diversity, and the status of different disciplines of art and science, especially contemporary art.

The core activities of the association consist of independent and critical art, research and education. The activity is centered in the Mustarinda House, which is located next to the Paljakka Nature Reserve in the Kainuu region, where artists/researchers-in-residence, art exhibitions and different cultural events.

The exhibition presents artists who are members of the Mustarinda which art works in their own way reflect topics essential to the association, whose works don’t illustrate ecological and growth critical questions literally but introduce another, more abstract level to the discussion of these concerns.

All of the works embody relation to environment be it forest, nature or virtual environment. One context behind these works is a concern of the state of our environment and the results of politics lead on terms of global economy.

The Hug, platform for cultural cooperation, association recently established, starts up its first project Linkkia taking advantage of the Mustarinda presence in Madrid for his exhibition at espacio trapézio. Linkkia is a “wellcome” program which provides the guests of Mustarinda the opportunity to enjoy a real plan of immersion in the social and cultural context of Madrid, putting them in contact with groups and organizations related to their interests and goals with the unique purpose of generating communication, collaborative networking, exchange knowledge and experience and build professional relationships for the future.
