New solo exhibition by Shoplifter opens at Kai Keskus in Tallinn  – Open air cinema to open in July

 

Popular Icelandic artist Shoplifter’s new solo exhibition ‘Hyperweb’ has opened at Kai Keskus in Noblessner. The unique exhibition which combines synthetic hair and an Icelandic soundscape was created especially for the exhibition space at Kai. 

Reykjavik-based artist Hrafnhildur Arnadóttir known popularly as Shoplifter, who calls herself a color maximalist, has created a unique multicolored installation for the Kai space using synthetic hair – her signature material. The soundscape for the exhibition has been created by Icelandic musician and talented theremin player Hekla. 

The exhibition ´Hyperweb’ will be on display until November 26.

It is also possible to book a personal tour at Kai Keskus in English and Russian, by emailing info@kai.center.
