Ptarmigan is no longer operating in Helsinki.

Ptarmigan existed as a project space in Vallila from 2009-2011 and a mobile curatorial/creative platform until 2014. We no longer exist as an organised collective, but this website will continue to serve as an archive of the activities produced as/at Ptarmigan during these years.

Auk Theatre (matinée performance) w/Lamprey and Vinegar, Kutomo
performance / theatre / exhibition
26 September, 2009 00:00
Featuring artist: Irene Moon

Ptarmigan will host a residency by Irene Moon and her Auk Theatre.  Her website describes Auk as: "Noisy, short and simple Absurdist theatre with only the best topics in consideration; shoes, cardbord, bats, wine, shapes and murder. Created simply to be beautiful." 

Irene will create a new Auk performance using the Ptarmigan space and perform twice while also screening some film and video work.  As an exhibition, drawings and storyboards by Auk partner Matt Minter will be on display, as well as prints and video stills from past Auk Theater performances and films.

The second performance will be Saturday, 26 September at 15:00 featuring live music by Moon's international due Lamprey and Vinegar and Helsinki's own Kutomo.
