As part of my research I am developing artistic-pedagogic practice, leading to the pre-examined artistic parts of my doctoral project. On this page you can find information about my recent and upcoming artistic-pedagogic work.

POST-SENSE ROOM & PAKO/THE ESCAPE

Participatory performance-installation and a video installation
​at New Performance Turku Festival
Turku, Finland 21-23/09/2018

The first pre-examined artistic part of my doctoral research.



Post-Sense Room 

Liisa Jaakonaho & Kristina Junttila
Consulting in visual design: scenographer and costume designer Ingvill Fossheim.

Post-Sense Room is a durational participatory installation, providing a space for reflecting on one’s abilities and debilities. Through material encounters and traces within the space, visitors are drawn into an embodied, sensory, aesthetic, and conceptual exploration. The piece is influenced by critical discourses around disability and ability, as well as Jaakonaho’s and Junttila’s embodied experiences of working with differently abled people. Post-Sense Room aims to make space for posthuman, vulnerable and interdependent subjectivity, going beyond normative binaries and fixed identities. Differently abled people have been consulted in the process of developing the piece.
​
At New Performance Turku Festival 2018 the room was open during the three festival days and audience could come and go as they wished. Jaakonaho & Junttila were be present in the space. 
  
 
Pako/The Escape

Liisa Jaakonaho
 
Parallel to Post-Sense Room, Liisa Jaakonaho presented a video installation, which deals with questions of visibility and invisibility, responsibility, care, stigma, otherness, distance/proximity, and difference. The piece contains fragments of data from Liisa’s artistic-pedagogic, doctoral research.

​BECOMING DISABLED:
PERFORMATIVE WORKSHOP-INSTALLATION


Camino Events, Research Pavilion, Venice 30/06-01/07/2017
​Liisa Jaakonaho & Kristina Junttila



​In summer 2017 I collaborated with artist-researcher Kristina Junttila at the 
​Research Pavilion, Venice Biennale.

The theme of the Research Pavilion 2017 was “The Utopia of Access”. Our performative workshop-installation circled around the theme of disability and access. In our ongoing collaboration we approach disability as a category that can be explored creatively; as a culture specific social construction, rather than a biological fact. The workshop was influenced by performance theory, critical pedagogy and post-humanist, critical disability studies; notions of performativity, embodiment, materiality, dependency, relationality, and normativity. During the workshop we constructed an installation, consisting of photographs, drawings, text, and other traces from the exercises that we facilitated.

​An article about our collaboration was published Uniarts
Helsinki's IssueX
magazine. You can read the article HERE.

​
We have also written about the project in the Research Pavilion blog.
