Hanaholmen Cultural Centre, Hanasaarenranta 5, Espoo, Finland
On 26 November, the Hanaholmen Cultural Centre will host the launch of Field Guide, a publication presenting the outcomes of the international artist residency programme Guarding the Baltic Sea 2026.
During the residency, held in the Finnish archipelago, artists from Estonia, Finland, France, Germany and Poland explored ways of translating scientific research into art and raising awareness of the Baltic Sea’s ecological state. The resulting publication highlights how art and science can work together to foster environmental awareness.
At the launch event, participating artists will share their experiences and concrete examples from their fieldwork. Researchers from the Seili and Tvärminne research stations, key partners of the programme, will contribute scientific perspectives.
The event will be held in English. Participation is possible both in person and online. Advance registration is required here.
Guarding the Baltic Sea is a project by EUNIC Finland and Goethe-Institut Finnland, French Institute of Finland, the Polish Embassy in Helsinki, and the Estonian Embassy in Helsinki.
EUNIC — European Union National Institutes for Culture — is Europe’s network of national cultural institutes and organisations, with 39 members from all EU member states and associated countries.
