Biography

Multidisciplinary artist and scholar

Dr. Raisa Foster (b. 1976) has focused on

the questions of eco-social justice and sustainable life orientation for the past several years. She holds the titles of associate professor in dance pedagogy (University of the Arts Helsinki) and in social pedagogy, especially artistic research and practice (University of Eastern Finland). Last two years, she has worked as a university researcher at the University of Eastern Finland. Originally a dance practitioner, Foster combines her expertise in body and movement with the possibilities of digital media, creating accessible but sensuously, emotionally, and cognitively stimulating total works of art. Her performances, media works, installations, and drawings have been exhibited in Finland and abroad. She has written several academic articles on the topics of recognition, contemporary art, dance, and ecosocial education. 

Artist Statement

For me, art is not "just art," but transformative action at its best. By speaking and making art with the "more than human world," I want to emphasize how our lives are inextricably intertwined not only with other people but also with other animals, plants, and the entire web of life. To address the environmental crisis, we need to understand our place as humans in a radically new way. We cannot continue to elevate ourselves above the rest of nature and exploit other lives in pursuit of our own interests. We need to understand that without well-functioning ecosystems, there are no humans either. On the other hand, I firmly believe that adopting a new, more sustainable way of life does not have to mean scarcity and suffering. As we connect with a more than human world, we can find our lives enriched through and in this new and deeply meaningful relationship.

With art, you must go there

where is no other access.

Just and Unjust Environmental Wars

1.7.2023–30.6.2026, Senior artist/researcher (50 %), Just and Unjust Environmental Wars, artistic research project, in collaboration with Teemu Mäki, Juha Mäkinen & Laura Puumala, funded by Kone Foundation

The project examines the nature and moral justification of environmental wars through science and art. It compares the perspectives of the prevailing paradigm of the ethics of war, the tradition of just war, environmental ethics, artistic research, and peace and conflict research in addressing human-based environmental threats. Typically, the justification of war is judged based on certain traditional moral principles. However, environmental threats have changed the world's security policy framework and the nature of wars, while the ethics of war have remained notably traditional. The project analyzes this tension between the traditional just war tradition and the ethical challenges of modern environmental wars. Artistic research analyzes the experiences, meanings, and connections of human-caused environmental destruction and violent conflicts. Its focus is on the violent actions of humans towards their own and other species in the form of armed conflicts and other use of force that is considered violent.

"FOOD" ISEAS 2022

1.8.2022–, ISEAS2022 "FOOD" by Katja Juhola, Collaborating artist

• Forthcoming in fall 2023, two video artworks at the group exhibition, Lapua Art Museum

International group of artists and researchers from different fields were invited to work collectively with each other and community members. The ISEAS Food Symposium held four art events in Lapua and Seinäjoki in August 2022. Each artist/scientist team worked with socially engaged art methods with communities of Tiistenjoki elementary school, Seinäjoki high school, young farmers, and the elderly book club. The project results will be reported as an art exhibition in the Lapua Art Museum in the fall/winter of 2023. Two of my video works created based on artistic research with high school students will be shown at the exhibition.

• Entrance (2018), video work together with Arna Valsdottir 21.–23.9.2018 Visual Festival, Joensuu
  

Tacit Gaze is a surround video and sound installation that weaves into the architecture of the Gallery at the Cultural House Laikku. The exhibition invites the audience to join the artists on

their sensory journey. The video material was created through embodied explorations in which the artists allowed sensations to guide them and a common rhythm to carry the work forward.

During the embodied exploration they decided to communicate non-verbally as much as possible. The artists paid attention to each other’s focus and used cameras to capture these moments of perception. The random encounters with moss, fly, mountain, cow, bathtub and an abandoned fish factory are now presented as fragments of the artists’ journey. The mosaic-like work is offered to create a sensory feel of the silent conversations with different environments and creatures.

Tacit Gaze (2021) – video installation, Raisa Foster & Arna Valsdóttir

Cultural House Laikku, Tampere, Finland, 2.–24.10.2021

Laikku's large gallery space is now a more coherent and memorable spatial experience than perhaps ever before. The sound and video installation Tacit Gaze created by Arna Valsdóttir from Iceland and Raisa Foster from Tampere is very close to an authentic nature experience. ...

The mosaic-like video projections in Laikku's gallery create parallel experiential realities, which have calmness, closeness to nature, harmony and gentleness in common. A space beyond language is created, where the viewer can rest and detach from their everyday thoughts, at least for a while.

More than human (2020–2021)

• More than human (2021), solo exhibition, drawings, video, and sound art 4.–23.6.2021,
  

Gallery Saskia, Tampere

Based on the research project Re-Connect/Re-Collect: Crossing the Divides through Memories of Cold War Childhoods, Tampere University, Faculty of Education and Culture ,

funded by Kone Foundation, personal senior artist/researcher grant 1.10.2020–31.8.2021

The exhibition consists of charcoal, chalk, and ink drawings as well as sound and video

art. The starting point of the multidisciplinary art practice was the human's embodied

relation to the world. Humans live in and engage with the world not only through thinking

minds but also as emotional and sensing bodies. But this is something that humans tend

to increasingly forget. This separation from the living world causes ecological problems,

which are, in fact, the problems of culture: the modern humans have failed to adapt

their culture to the planetary boundaries. We live as humans in the world as if we were

"pure" conscious beings without a body and a relation with our environment.

The exhibition was created by exploring memories that describe childhood experiences in different environments and interactions with other living beings. Humans carry perceptions, emotions, and memories in their living bodies. In the video and sound art, childhood memory stories are combined with the artist's own experiences, poetic and metaphorical narratives, and previously recorded and archived materials. The drawings have also been created by "upcycling," that is, continuing previous drawings by editing, covering, and destabilizing them. Through observations, coincidences, additions, deletions, lines, and rubbing, the image are done and undone in way that they would breathe again and be in constant motion.

Ecosocial Otherness (2018–2019)

• 1.7.–31.12.2018 Multidisciplinary art project on ecosocial otherness,

Tampere, Finland / Akureyri, Iceland, funded by Arts Promotion Centre Finland

The artistic research project produced four artworks - a photography installation, a 360 video work, and two performances. All the works handle the topic of otherness, but they all look at this common theme from different perspectives and through various subthemes (disability, animals, environment). However, the starting point of each work is an embodied relation with otherness.
