🏆 Nastja Säde Rönkkö has won the Below Zero 2023 art prize 🏆

Rönkkö will create a new site-specific video installation. “I feel very honoured and grateful to have been selected to receive the Below Zero 2023 prize. It feels particularly special because it allows me to continue making experimental, multi-disciplinary works in London, a city that was my home for over 10 years,” says Rönkkö.

This is the third time the prize has been awarded. The prize is worth £15 000 and includes a mentored 4–6 week residency in London, materials and an exhibition at @beaconsfield_gallery_vauxhall in London. During the residency, the recipient will realise her project for the gallery. In addition, the @serlachiusmuseums will provide the winner with an exhibition and a residency.

Congratulations to the winner!

One night until our TOVE screening and Q&A at Rio Cinema!

🔗 Book your ticket through the link in our bio 🔗

Before the event, we wanted to further introduce our special Q&A guests:

First up is Andrea Reuter, the film's producer. She has carved her way into being one of the most sought after moderators in Europe within the fields of film and TV drama. She is currently working for ATContent that produces events and online content, often related to Tove Jansson’s cultural legacy.

Next we have Pia Rickman, intimacy coordinator and lecturer. She has pioneered the profession of intimacy coordinators in her native Finland, and has been collaborating on creating new industry standards for the profession in the UK.

We are lucky to have both of them as speakers, and it is bound to be an interesting and enlightening Q&A session!

It's one of a kind!

We have joined forces with the renowned Finnish architect Sami Rintala and architectural students from the University of Westminster to create the sauna.

Sami Rintala says, “It has been an honour to be a part of this project. Sharing my practice with the students has been a great experience. The students have created a unique sauna that is very special. The design of the sauna is exceptional and the modular system means that the sauna can be explored and adapted to any setting."
