The program is based on an open call set with the theme of ‘control’.

‘One could claim that everything within the realities we produce, experience, narrate, perform, research, and imagine, is inevitably an interactional matter; matter of power and thus, also, of control.
Control is a means of limiting or regulating something, and in vernacular use, the term has a slightly negative echo. Nevertheless, like many such concepts, control is not a negative nor positive term per se, but its quality is bound to the context: to particular perspectives and circumstances. By dictionary, control defines not only as "the ability to restrain one's own emotions or actions," but also as "the power to influence or direct people's behaviour or the course of events."
The concept of control contains the idea of an attempt to influence or restrict an activity, tendency, phenomenon, or situation in a determinative manner. Then again, also the risk of losing control is inevitably and indivisibly encapsulated by the notion.
What kinds of scenes might the theme of control cover in the contemporary?’

Third Space is an art space in Helsinki and a long-term cultural project shaped by the diverse geopolitical views and backgrounds of its members. By translating theories into actions, our practice revolves around an attempt to rethink and redefine border-discussing categorizations. To create new ways of understanding and communicating —transcending the invisible lines that separate us— we aim at observing both the 'outside-in' and 'inside-out.' While art practices are highly individualized and the art field increasingly capitalized, our goal is to foster collaboration over competition. Third Space is an incubator for generating ideas; a space for encounters, art, and its production.
