The exhibition Glass Behind Glass presents a selection of glass objects made in the last couple of years by Kimmo Reinikka (b.1975) and Kaappo Lähdesmäki (b.1982).
Both Kimmo and Kaappo work as entrepreneurs in Lasisismi´s glass studio and spend much of their time on commissioned works based on the designs of others. The works exhibited here have been created as a counterbalance to that, and celebrate the joy of working with glass when the artists have been let free to explore their own ideas.
In his art, Kimmo utilizes his experience of diverse glass techniques and applies them in creative and original ways. Kaappo makes both complex sculptures that are entirely hot-worked, as well as works assembled from cold-worked parts. Both artists have featured in many exhibitions and their works can be found in both private and glass museum collections.
The Lasismi glass studio is located in Riihimäki, in the old premises of the former Riihimäki glass factory. Lasismi began its operations by continuing the operations of Jaakko Liikanen's glass studio in 2010, and has produced countless different works of glass art, as well as commercial glass and other projects. In addition to commissioned work, an important part of their activity has always been both organizing their own exhibitions and participating in joint exhibitions. As time has gone by, the proportion of their time spent on traditional industrial-type serial work has diminished.
In just over ten years, the nature of client work has changed and currently Lasismi mostly implements unique works, as well as glass parts for restoration. In Lasismi, Kaappo is mainly responsible for blowing and Kimmo for grinding. Their high level of professionalism has guaranteed enough commissioned work to maintain the operation of the Lasismi glass cabin. Additionally, the commissioned work has pushed the artists to use and increase their expertise through a variety of projects designed by outside artists and designers.

Swedish-Finnish group exhibition at Yö Galleria, Helsinki, May 8 – May 30 2021
Curated by Anton Wiraeus and Ilkka Pitkänen
In these times of travel restrictions and quarantine, remote work and closed cultural facilities, we feel that it is important to look ahead and maintain contact with our neighbouring countries.
For the exhibition project that takes place in May 2021, we start a collaboration and exchange with artists from Finland and Sweden. The first part of the exhibition will be held in Yö Galleria, which is located on Lönnrotinkatu, Helsinki and is run by the newly found Artists' Association Yö.
The theme and name of the exhibition is A floating border. The land border between Finland and Sweden is 555 kilometers long and consists for the most part of rivers that flow between the countries and also the Baltic Sea, where moving water is the barrier that separates the countries. A boundary that cannot be marked out and that is constantly moving in different directions.
7.00-10.00pm
Kokeile collective consists of four core members.

Runoutta, räppiä, oopperaa, kieltä käyttävää performanssi- tai videotaidetta, tarinankerrontaa, kuiskailua, saarnaa ja paasausta, aseemista elehdintää. Illan esitykset voivat olla mitä tahansa.
