QUEER COHESION

Queer Cohesion is a series of three exhibitions that provides a platform for queer contemporary artists from the Nordic countries. The respective exhibitions carry the following thematics; Collectiveness, Norm-Criticality and Body. The project Queer Cohesion is initiated and curated by artists Hinni Huttunen and AnnaLeena Prykäri.

Project Queer Cohesion started in the year 2020. First exhibition with the theme of Collectiveness took place in 2021 as the project was born from the craving for collaboration and discussions, both within the artists and audience. Collectiveness is also vital for the queer communities' existence and survival. 

Followed by year 2023, with the theme of Norm-Criticality which is a tool for dismantling various social structures, constraining perspectives and highlighting power hierarchies. 

The exhibition series is finalized with the thematic of Body that is here seen as a psychical and mental state. The Body can be a catalysator for movement or inanimate objects in space. The exhibition Body will take place fall 2025.

Queer Cohesion stands for togetherness – solidarity – bonding and sticking together.
