Hanna Valle’s (Vantaa, Finland, 1988) installation Offspring is a test ground for tactile experiments. It is a science fiction story about pulsing objects and alien parenthood, – the relationship of the sculptor’s physical labour and the beings on the table. Through Offspring, Valle imagines different multi-species’ continuous journeys on Earth, moving across various landscapes and different times , while carrying the burden of an environmentally violent past. As the illegitimate descendant of the human designer, Offspring deals with the questions of (historical) transformation, co-dependency and care. Following the traces of yet-unknown organisms – bodies entwined with the environment reminiscences of trauma and terror – Valle maps uncanny scenes, where socioecological tensions take form, materialize and speak.
