Bonniers Konsthall

Helen Mirra (b. 1970) lives in Cambridge, Massachusetts, USA. Recent activities include the solo exhibitions Case study: Swiss bird houses at Taka Ishii, Kyoto, and 33 Bergwanderwege at Meyer Riegger Galerie, Berlin.

Inspired by the notion that every rock has a soul, Helen Mirra has collected rocks during her hikes in the Swiss Alps. In her work Rock Mind she displays them resting on Swiss Army blankets. The photographs are showing the sites where the rocks were collected. The artist has twisted the photographs to enable perception and consciousness that are different than the human one.
