Amnion

Finland, Japan / Experimental / 7' / 8mm / Color / 2023 

Landfills on the fringes of cities reveal all about our culture, habits, fears and desires. Here treasures turn into trash and the excess of our discarded welfare and cheap labor dances in the wind. Amnion is a dark and melancholy vision where the organic merges with the synthetic.

CV

Saara Ekström works in film, photography, text and installation. Chronotopes where time and place densify, time that nurtures and erodes, the ambivalent desire to both remember and forget are at the core of her art. Ekström’s work has been shown extensively in various museums and festivals across the world.
