Collaboration with Pekka Niittyvirta

The site-specific installation consists of two large-scale glass panes in opposing colours: blue-green and violet. Each pane filters the other, creating agrey zone when viewed from either side. The work changes according to the direction of light and the viewer’s position, producing shifting combinations of colour, form, and grey areas. These grey zones form an intermediate space in which two elements cancel each other out and appear as one. In other words, the grass is always grey on the other side of the fence — regardless of which side one occupies. Through abstraction, the work addresses the contractual concept of a border.
