Alma Heikkilä: semipermeable & sensitive

Finnish artist Alma Heikkilä is fascinated by the collective activities of the forest ecosystem, as well as the creatures that live upon and within the human body. For 84 STEPS, Heikkilä presents a newly commissioned installation comprising two large-scale canvases.
