“A Thousand Plateaus” by Lana Haga

A selection of sculptures made of repurposed plastics and reliefs made of cotton twine and oil paint by artist Lana Haga. Based in Vaasa, Finland, Haga’s work is a consideration of planetary transformation: how we mutate, endure, and reassemble in a world shaped by excess and collapse. Her solo exhibition, “A Thousand Plateaus,” was recently on display with MUU Contemporary Art Centre, Helsinki. The project examines continuous transformation across material, process and conceptual systems. The title is taken from the book by Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari, referencing the idea of rhizomes—structures that grow in multiple directions without a fixed centre. This concept closely mirrors Haga’s artistic process, which moves fluidly across different media and materials, embracing openness, transformation and chance encounters. The artworks appeared alongside a 50-minute ambient and minimalist sound composition by French sound artist Fayf Abad.
