–> Arrowgroup (Triinu Jürves and Villem Jahu)

Exhibition

IN MURKY WATERS II

Interactive installation

28.9.2024 – 1.9.2025

The exhibition combines collage, spatial installation and animation, bringing together shifted references to Kalamaja’s industrial history and possible visions of the future.

It is a humorous and at the same time sadly festive cross product of fairy tales, puns and bitter imagery. Yesterday, today and tomorrow, a stalled and an accelerated moment in time, are present at once.

All visitors are invited to play this board game.

The installation reuses found materials, artworks and leftovers from previous exhibitions of the Tallinn City Museum and –> Arrowgroup.

The artists are members of the art community on Vana-Kalamaja Street.

–> Arrowgroup (–> Noolegrupp in Estonian) is an art group operating since 2004, consisting of Triinu Jürves (b. 1974) and Villem Jahu (b. 1985).

–> Arrowgroup’s works are mostly installations or performative environments and objects used to visualise a figuratively addressed topic or problem. Often using video or sound art, the aim is always to create a site-specific solution with a clean and clear image. In most cases, the group’s work is interactively inclusive or relates to public space. –> Arrowgroup is no stranger to humour and often uses multilayered cultural references.
The list of exhibitions includes 15 solo exhibitions and more than 40 joint projects, group exhibitions and performances in Estonia, Finland, Latvia, Germany, Slovakia, France and the UK.
