Publication accompanying the similar named duo exhibition featuring two artists from different generations: Kadi Estland and Netti Nüganen. Both Estland’s and Nüganen’s work is characterised by a strong artistic position, immediate and emotional expressions and a principle of leaving the work unfinished. Estland has shaped the Estonian contemporary art field with her feminist approach since the beginning of the 2000s. Nüganen works with the tension points of eclecticism and specificity. She makes video works and performances that address issues like alienation and self-exposure, and plays with different female tropes, without taking them too seriously. The exhibition presenting everyday realities blended with fiction and displayed through personal, yet staged scenes, reflects the artists’ attitude towards the current state of the art field and society in general. With its intriguing title, the exhibition was meant to call for less self-censorship and more positive change in society. (*Also published in Estonian)
