A neon sign with the text (empty space) is hanging from the ceiling in a completely dark space, giving a dim blue light to the space. A constant gently hum of the neon transformer is heard from above the neon sign. When a visitor enters the room and fills the space with movement, the light and sound goes off. When a visitor stops and pauses, the light and sound goes on again. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The work takes its name from the foundational theatre theory by Peter Book (The Empty Space, 1968). According to the theory, “all that is needed for an act of theatre to be engaged is a man walking across an empty space whilst someone is watching him”.&nbsp; INSTALLATION CONCEPT&nbsp; Tomi Leppänen TECHNICAL ASSISTANCE Daniel Richert&nbsp;YEAR&nbsp;2026 https://tomileppanen.com/4-33 Thu, 05 Mar 2026 08:42:26 +0000 Tomi Leppänen https://tomileppanen.com/4-33 <img width="4580" height="2576" width_o="4580" height_o="2576" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/ba26d40703e723bdd93bbadec50b25bd97fd71aae1640c13bec1687958b5ec05/NN_freda33_4-33_01.jpg" data-mid="245649183" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/ba26d40703e723bdd93bbadec50b25bd97fd71aae1640c13bec1687958b5ec05/NN_freda33_4-33_01.jpg" /> <img width="4000" height="6000" width_o="4000" height_o="6000" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/e4512dbc4ae3066cac4d3df5f81f1691f258997067ca67ab2a30a9addddee2e6/NNx433-teaser-10.jpg" data-mid="245649187" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/e4512dbc4ae3066cac4d3df5f81f1691f258997067ca67ab2a30a9addddee2e6/NNx433-teaser-10.jpg" /> <img width="2160" height="2880" width_o="2160" height_o="2880" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/05740bb703185729e26ca7fcc0d238fc4564883eaaf4852edc817d1949501b0c/4-33_Installation_1080x1440px.png" data-mid="245649418" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/05740bb703185729e26ca7fcc0d238fc4564883eaaf4852edc817d1949501b0c/4-33_Installation_1080x1440px.png" /> <img width="2160" height="2880" width_o="2160" height_o="2880" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/610a620601efa210a9d2b6ac57ea8e4916d399d2bf9206764701fcd66f805106/4-33_Festival_1080x1440px.png" data-mid="245649417" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/610a620601efa210a9d2b6ac57ea8e4916d399d2bf9206764701fcd66f805106/4-33_Festival_1080x1440px.png" /> <img width="4580" height="2576" width_o="4580" height_o="2576" data-src="https://freight.cargo.site/t/original/i/bec0f6f8ac5902ef0d1a82092fd7cf487cf5d3c31ca1060376a7228e9eadc7f0/NNx433-teaser-1.jpg" data-mid="245649186" border="0" src="https://freight.cargo.site/w/1000/i/bec0f6f8ac5902ef0d1a82092fd7cf487cf5d3c31ca1060376a7228e9eadc7f0/NNx433-teaser-1.jpg" /> PROJECT&nbsp; 4 33 Installation at Nomen Nescio Gallery Space. 4 33 can be seen as a visual cover version of the John Cage’s silent composition 4’33” (1952). The installation features a blank musical staff made of white neon tubes.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; Exploring the concepts of time and space, the piece stretches physically to 4 meters and 33 centimeters in length, and its illumination lasts exactly 4 minutes and 33 seconds. The staff lights up line by line, remains fully lit for the duration, and then dims sequentially, creating a temporal rhythm that mirrors Cage’s exploration of silence and attention. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The installation was accompanied by the 4 33 Festival, a special evening featuring stellar artists performing 4-minute-and-33-second pieces. The artists included Ada Aik, Heta Bilaletdin, Islaja, Malla, Ringa Manner and sound engineer Mauri Syrjälä.

The exhibition focuses on pure form, starting from the simplest visual element — a dot. When the dot is moving, it becomes the line. When a line is multiplying and rotating, it finally becomes a grid. Using the grid as a metaphor for crossing paths and connecting the dots, the exhibition is the first collaboration between the two artists. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; My part of the exhibition is the Lines. It consists of straight lines, made of one meter long white glass neon tubes, measuring the walls. It is a modular concept, where a ”responsive” line is adjusting itself to the given space, and the total length of each line depends on the length / height of the wall it is installed on. The amount of the one meter long neon tubes equals the length of the given line in metres, so it becomes the title of the work.

Neon light icons fill the walls of the exhibition space. On the first wall is a generic image placeholder icon, reminiscent of a mountain landscape. On the opposite wall, staring at the landscape, is an anonymous profile picture icon.&nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; On the surface, these simplified placeholder icons—familiar from digital user interfaces—are content-free. Made of basic geometric shapes, they are temporary visual representations of content that will be added later. At the same time, they carry a huge potential, occupying the space for something yet to be seen or specified. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; At the gallery, the archetypal icons make a suggestion for an exhibition layout: Here is a portrait, here is a landscape. Stuck in a moment between an idea and the realization, the (PLACEHOLDER) exhibition simultaneously presents nothing and everything.

In “Untitled”, a video is projected on the wall of the exhibition space. It displays the moment before a thought or an idea converts into a text form, and stretches it into an endless waiting “situation”. On the surface nothing is happening, yet everything is possible. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; The main role is played by a blinking text cursor, and the location is set on a modern age empty white paper, an untitled text document. With the cursor blinking in one second intervals, the work can also be used as a simple meditation tool or a timer.

The exhibition and its elements were handbuilt by Circle, and the visual identity explores the making-of process behind the exhibition. Spreading across the city of Pori, the posters and the advertisements present snapshots of different stages of the exhibition production, from the wood frame workshop to the test-building of the pentakis dodecahedron in the backyard. As a reference to the exhibition name (piste = dot), the imagery is presented through a uniform raster dot effect. &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; &nbsp; PISTE is a sculpture &amp; audio installation created by Circle, a Pori based experimental music group that stretches the boundaries between art forms. PISTE presents Circle’s artistic ethos in a spatial exhibition environment. The main feature in the exhibition space is a large sculpture taking the geometric form of a pentakis dodecahedron. Made of sheet metal and a frame, it resembles the aesthetics of heavy metal music, a notion that is amplified by the seven box-like shapes arranged to ritualistically circle the center sculpture.
