Martta Tuomaala – Delving into the aspects of work

Weekly market review 27 January 2024 12:30 pm – otte1 Residency

Martta Tuomaala works between documentary and fiction. She focuses on various forms of film, video and installation. Over the past decade she has mainly concentrated on work culture and workers’ issues. Martta Tuomaala has worked in many low-income fields and her own experiences have inspired her to create projects emphasizing workers’ rights.

In her recent artworks, a notable satirical touch and expressive body language are evident, but the form and the tone of the artwork depends largely on the content that is dealt with.

Martta Tuomaala will present small excerpts of her filmography and share her insights to a wider theme of labour that is not only visible in her artworks, but strongly connected to her activities as an artworker.
