Markus Heino, Tomi Humalisto and Pilvi Porkola

What will future archaeologists discover about our era? 
How will they interpret and misinterpret our time? What recording methods will they think we used,
and what will be left of us?


The Archaeology of Time exhibition features videos, installations, photographs, sound works, and performances exploring the human relationship with objects and the material world. Everyday objects have a relationship with time, both in the past and future.

The working group explores these objects and their material relationships from an imaginary future by deconstructing, reassembling, sorting, archiving, laminating, and making them strange. As a result, displayed installations and videos aim to capture something of the ever-evolving time
