Ekphrastic poetry, poetry written in relation to other works of art, is a way of engaging with the multiple senses of artistic expression through language. Ekphrastic poems correspond with another work, connecting the poet through language and imagination with the depth of expression available in other mediums. You may write about the characters depicted in a painting and how you imagine the moments before and after that of the work. You might assume the voice of the artist, or an element (human or otherwise) within the inspiring piece. You might explore the socio-political context of the creation of the work, or its resonance across history and time, or write about your own experience connecting with the work. Over three sessions we’ll read some ekphrastic poems in English (or in translation to English) for inspiration, and compose our own ekphrastic poems.

We warmly invite everyone who is feeling inspired by the theme of the course, and you are very welcome also
if your mother tongue is not English!

Kurssin tarkoitus on avautua kännykän ehtymättömistä mahdollisuuksista tehdä elokuvaa, livestreeminkejä, päiväkirjaa, dokkareita, kokeilevaa videotaidetta jne., sekä löytää uutta tarkoitusta ja sanoa sanottavansa.
Tärkein on vapautua ilmaisemaan omalla tavallaan.

Hybridimuotoinen työpaja tapahtuu sekä paikan päällä Yö Galleriassa että etänä Zoomissa.

Have you dreamed about working with textile and installation? If the response is positive, the „Yö Pajat: Textile installation workshop” workshop series is for you. During the workshop series you will get knowledge about composing space and colour through use of various media with the emphasis on textile. We will relate theoretical knowledge with the practical skills and work sustainably with recycled materials. During the workshops we will explore how to implement traditional skills into contemporary installation language. We will research the tradition of contemporary art installation and textile art, get to know the basics of fabric as a medium, textile crafting options, constructing patterns, basics about the theory of colour and its meaning in space. We will also be open to mix textile with other media (such as digital work). At the end of the workshop series we will present results with original artworks of all the participants.

Who is this for: This workshop is for anyone practising art and handicraft, professionally or leisurely or both, persons who would like to share skills and work methodologies in a supportive environment. We follow Safer Space guidelines.

What you will need: You are encouraged to bring along an unfinished project. It can be a textiles project, but it does not have to be - a text, a drawing, a funding application. We will apply the concepts of sewing and mending to any possible processes. For those joining us on-site there will be a limited amount of materials available free of charge.

KA YOGA is a body related practice based upon
traditional hatha yoga seen through the lens of 
a big artistic experience of a performance and visual artist Josef Ka.

During this workshop you will learn how to program video playback, transformation and glitch in Pure Data (PD). During the first session we will go through the basic operations in the PD environment, so we can start operating the video and audio during the second meeting. I would like you to develop a project that you can show during the third meeting, and with my help prepare it for a screening during the Yö Kekri Festival on Sunday 16.10.2022 at Yö Galleria. 
The workshop is dedicated to both amateurs and professionals in music/video production and the main goal is to encourage you to start a journey into the world of programming audiovisual art.

Runon liike on erilaisille kirjoittajalle kohdennettu neljän tapaamiskerran kurssi. Sen tarkoitus on pohtia runon kirjoituksen ja liikkeen suhdetta, ja tarjota työvälineitä oman kirjoittamisen kehittämiseen. Miten runo kulkee metaforan väyliä? Miten runon puhuja liikkuu, vetäytyy, vuotaa tai hidastaa? Millaisia mahdollisuuksia olisi kineettisellä videorunolla ja menetelmällisillä harjoitteilla? Kuinka ruumiin liike litteroituu tekstiin ja tekstistä takaisin ruumiiseen?
Runokurssi on avoin taiteilijoille ja tekijöille kaikista eri taustoista, ja se ei vaadi aiempaa kokemusta runon kirjoittamisesta. Monialaisuus on suositeltavaa ja voimme muotouttaa kurssin sopimaan osallistujan omiin tarpeisiin ja taiteellisiin kysymyksiin. Kurssikertojen aikana luetaan erilaisia tekstejä sekä tehdään lyhyitä kirjoittamisharjoitteita. Kuukauden mittaisen kurssin ajalle annetaan myös yksi päätehtävä, jonka voi tehdä haluamallaan tavalla. Kurssin opetuskieli on suomi.
 
Hybridimuotoinen työpaja tapahtuu sekä paikan päällä Yö Gallerialla että etänä Zoomissa. Osallistujamäärä on 13 henkilöä. Lähiosallistujien maksimimäärä paikan päällä gallerialla on 3 henkilöä ja etänä Zoomissa 10 henkilöä. Kerro ilmoittautumisen yhteydessä haluatko osallistua paikan päällä Yö Gallerialla vai etänä Zoomissa.
