Heavy Merry Finland is an independent artists’ collective promoting young and experimental Finnish art and artists internationally. Founded in 2010, HMF organises exhibitions for invited artists in galleries and artist-run exhibition spaces.

HMF operates on a non-commercial basis and it provides opportunities to build contacts abroad. Our goal is to facilitate and enhance networking. New contacts, opportunities and collaboration possibilities are key to the work.

Artists participating at Supermarket are Anssi Kasitonni, Noora Federley, Ville Pirinen, Laura Lappi, Maria Stereo, Sanna Järvelä, Annika Kivi, Jouna Karsi, Petteri Tikkanen, and Kaija Papu.

What unites them is a common view of the world and of visual arts: both are dead serious but lively and fun at the same time. All reflect on this in their own unique way.
