Nowadays it is important to do multicultural work to improve the communication beyond words. Poetry and art in all manifestations could be the best way to start a multilingual conversation.
For that reason Salasanat, The Sound Room of Third Space, Sivuvalo and Caisa are preparing SANAHUONE.
A place where poetry, sound art & audiovisual experimentation converge to re-create nocturnal soundscapes.
Friday 4th of September, from 19:00 to 22:30 hours.
CAISA International Cultural Centre. Mikonkatu 17C/ Vuorikatu 14. 00100 Helsinki.
About the artists:
Oliver – PK. Oliver Whitehead reads his poems accompanied with P-K Keränen, from 22-Pistepirkko, playing on electric guitar. Together they experiment, improvise and spontaneously weave words and sounds.
