Lahden Taiteilijaseura: Vimma

Vimma is a group exhibition by the Lahti Artists' Association that examines the passion for art and artistic practice at a time when cultural funding, visibility, and space face constant pressure. In the works, energy manifests through movement, material, colour, or subject matter - as physical, spiritual, and social pulses.

The exhibition highlights the enthusiasm of artists from Lahti while questioning the notion that art arises solely from inner necessity without resources or encouragement. Even the brightest flame can be extinguished if too much water is poured on it.

Exhibition artists: Tytti Götsch, Mika Heinonen, Eeva Honkanen, Tiina-Liisa/Tisainia, Kirsi Karppinen, Arto Kettunen, Maija Pilvikki Kimanen, Helena Lehtinen, Tiina Liinamaa, Mikko Lyytinen, Leena Niivuori, Nelli Penna, Egor Robenko and Piipa Toivonen.

HAA Galleria, 3-26 July 2026. Tue-Thu 12.00-18.00, Fri-Sun 12.00-16.00. Free admission.
