iida - ssi+
iida-ssi is the collaborative practice of iida jonsson and ssi saarinen, finnish artists from the autonomous region åland islands. their work appears through interventions — re-constructions of the corrupt. the interventions are usually taking advantage of cracks: ruptures, unguarded entries, and unmeant outcomes. through these breaches, iida-ssi plays with new political potentialities and their coming to life.
interface trilogy: glossolalia is an intervention with de thomaskerk. over five days repellent images and sounds are rambling through the cracks of the concrete walls. considering glossolalia through conscious confusion and gatekeeping, a chant emerges: a divine service for the secular.
