concept
The goal was to deliver KAJO’s first international exhibition in the heart of Helsinki. The project positioned the organization as a serious new player in the contemporary art scene, delivering a high professional standard and visibility among collectors, partners, and media.
challenge
KAJO was a newly registered non-profit organization with no access to grants, therefore it was critical to secure sponsorship to make it possible. We focused on building visibility and establishing clear internal and external communication.
solution
We activated personal networks to secure partners and sponsors, coordinated lighting design and exhibition setup, supported promotion and event planning, and provided ongoing guidance through meetings, production, and communication workflows.
a Finnish-France exhibition that introduced a new art organization to Helsinki’s cultural map with confidence and clarity from day one
The exhibition introduced a dialogue between Finnish and French artists, emphasizing international collaboration and cultural exchange. ARTISHOK.ME supported the project across key stages: partner outreach, space set up, light design coordination, visitor experience, and opening event planning. The exhibition unfolded as a carefully structured experience, guiding visitors through artworks while creating space for connection, discussion, and discovery.
achievements
The project introduced KAJO to Helsinki’s art community and received a feature in a French magazine. As a result, KAJO gained the foundation, confidence, and network to plan future international exhibitions, with ongoing discussions already underway in Sweden, Iceland, and France.
