Peurakaira @ Kiasma 1.4.

Peurakaira vs. Päätehakkuu?

Saturday April 1 @ 2 pm @ Kiasma-theatre, Helsinki.
Free entrance.

An audiovisual performance by Kirmo Kivelä (FI), Matti Snellman (FI), Pertti Jääsaari (FI), Hannu Paju (FI). A work-in-progress which will have its first show for the audience at Pikseliähky 2006. The performance is based on photographic material from the Peurakaira region in Northern Finland. The ancient forests of Peurakaira are threatened by logging, a topic which is currently under a legal dispute between Finnish State forestry enterprise Metsähallitus and the Lapin Paliskunta (Lappi reindeer herding co-operative).
