Finnish artist turns shifting winds into immersive art at Venice Biennale

Marking the 70th anniversary of the Pavilion of Finland, Frame Contemporary Art Finland commissioned and will present Aeolian Suite by artist Jenna Sutela at the 61st International Art Exhibition of La Biennale di Venezia, on view from May 9 to November 22, 2026.

Curated by Stefanie Hessler, Aeolian Suite unfolds as a multisensory environment, transforming the pavilion into a windscape of sound and movement. The artwork is composed using meteorological data, musical instruments (such as a clothesline, wind machines and a children’s woodwind orchestra) and the winds from Venice, Helsinki and beyond.

“The pavilion whisks us into an expanded conversation with the atmosphere – one that moves between scientific measurement and poetic intuition, between control and surrender,” says Hessler.
