Maria Huhmarniemi: Eripituisia aikoja / Various durations of time
Various Durations of Time is a series of installations made from old and used coffee cups. Figures that I have formed from cups represent short passing moments. Thus the form of a Maltese-Cross (Lychnis chalcedonica) and a Peacock Butterfly (Inachis io) are some sort of vanitas symbols in the installation. Cups that I have used are from different decades from 1920 up to the present. By selecting cups that represent the design of their time I try to highlight the repetition of short durations and the presence of history in this moment.
