Tiivistelmä
This thesis and the multidimensional artwork were to examine whether it is possible to develop and create environmentally friendly art from the environmental waste. With my working group, we chose to try to convert the zero fibre of Näsijärvi in Tampere into biochar.
In the summer of 2022, we investigated the possibility of converting and pyrolyzing zero fibre into biochar as energy-efficiently as possible and further pro-cessing it into an environmental artwork for the Pispala’s Contemporary Art Centre Hirvitalo’s sculpture park. A large artwork complex "Hiilinielu" (Eng. Car-bon Sink) was born.
The environmental artwork acts as a carbon sink from the power of zero-fiber pyrolyzed and fed biochar in the sculpture park of the contemporary art center of Pispala. The artwork includes an art video with a spell-like spoken word, a photographic work and a still life. The body of work was presented at the RAW exhibition in March 2023 at Grafiikanpaja Himmelblau.
In this thesis, we went through the pyrolysis process of zero fiber into biochar and the different stages of each work in the ensemble from the beginning to the gallery space.
