Organized by Kiasma, the exhibition is comprised of works from 2009 to 2016 and is Neto’s first solo exhibition in Finland.
Originally inspired by the shape of the head of a boa constrictor, the installation contains elements that Neto has been using in his work for more than 20 years: the unity of humanity and nature, sensuousness, experientiality and the production of positive energy. The exhibition also reflects Neto’s views on respecting the rights and traditions of indigenous peoples and the appreciation of cultural difference.
