The Pleasures We Choose

This publication is in close dialogue with the ideas, processes and artworks by Pia Lindman, Vidha Saumya and Jenni-Juulia Wallinheimo-Heimonen, and acts as a handbook to The Pleasures We Choose, the eponymous Pavilion of Finland at the 60th International Art Exhibition – La Biennale di Venezia. The contributions gathered here address matters of access, agency, toxicity, architectures of violence (social, cultural and environmental), institutional conditions, disability justice, interdependency, collectivity, human and planetary health, healing, embodiment-as-power, rest-as-resistance, and radical acts of selection, sustaining and spreading pleasure. This book can be read in direct relation to the exhibition, but also functions as an invitation for those who could not attend in person, presenting and extending the core practices, processes and politics of the project through the more intimate and autonomous format of a publication.
