Örö Residency this October 2020

Added on by Kira O'Reilly.

I am here on the beautiful island of Örö which is located in the outer reaches of the Turku archipelago for for the duration of October that is organised and hosted by Öres.
It is a remarkable place, full of military remnants from the past 100 years since it’s establishment as an outpost by Russia, and now the site of the careful conservation of it’s unique flora and fauna under the auspices of Metsulahitus.
During my sojourn here I am going to be happily engaged in several concurrent projects including responding to the very locale itself and it’s the blustery autumn weather conditions. I shall be discussing these in my blog.
Thank you to Öres for this wonderful opportunity and to all on the island of Öro.
