''In circular motion one moves through these transitional spaces and landscapes, re-establishing the concept of home. Self becomes furnished with objects belonging to others. You are waiting and conditioned to leave. We give you these shoes to walk with back to a space of non-being.''
Tuao - Conditioned to leave researched the materialities of momentariness that hid in the basements of refugee centers in Helsinki/Finland. The exhibition was composed of various materials, stories and objects that were left behind from the people who were deported (or left) Finland. The purpose of the work of art was to archive and document some of the materials unfolding the refugee crisis and partly expose the ways in which it was dealt with in Finland.
