The screening event will take place on May 17, 2026 at 18:00-19:30.

In Embarkation (2012) moving image is framed and re-framed like the process of capturing still photographs, exploring the relationship between the still and the moving image.

Sini Pelkki (b. 1978, Helsinki) works with photography and moving image. She is interested in the subjectivity of seeing, introspective lives of spaces within spaces. In her works landscapes, figures and objects turn into layered narratives that lead to various paths and ambiguous readings. Pelkki has studied in London and Helsinki, gaining her Bachelor degree in Fine Art from Chelsea College of Art and Design, London (UK) in 2002 and MA from the Academy of Fine Arts Helsinki in 2008. Her works have been shown in exhibitions internationally. Film works have been presented at EMAF-European Media Art Festival, Rencontres Internationale Paris, International Film Festival Rotterdam, Internationale kurzfilmtage Oberhausen, Videoex. Pelkki is based in Helsinki, Finland.
