acts of sorrow

Acts of Sorrow is a silent protest against the  environmental and social impacts of the Talvivaara / Terrafame nickel mine in Finland. The performance was born out of anger, frustration and sadness,  against those in power and responsible for the continued ecological destruction caused by the mining operations. 

Extracts of the performance video was shown as part of the Performance Voyage 2017 - 2018 curated by Muu Ry. 

Duration of video 10 min
