The Blast – XXVIII Mänttä Art Festival was built around the themes of light, airiness, perspectives and spatiality.
The concept of a blast makes us think of movement and the ripples of the air. In many of the works in the exhibition, subtle movement, multi-sensory experiences and the presence of nature were conveyed in a diverse way.
