No Ordinary Moments is an exhibition featuring a curated pick of Finnish and international works from EMMA’s collection. The exhibition reflects on the different layers of the visible and imaginary worlds and the surrounding reality that we share in complex ways. The uncanny fantasy worlds portrayed in the exhibition step outside everyday reality, inviting us on a journey into the fascinating world of the subconscious mind.

No Ordinary Moments highlights many recent additions to EMMA’s collections alongside older acquisitions and donations. The exhibition was curated by Museum Director Pilvi Kalhama and Chief Curator Henna Paunu.
