Nurture is a performance that creates a space for gentleness and vulnerability. It uses nurture and breastfeeding to explore the body, gender and coexistence. The performance is a one-on-one encounter in which the performer breastfeeds a participant. Each performance is for a single participant. Reserve a participant spot on EMMA’s website.
The performances are open to all, and they can also be observed, without participation. Viewers do not need to register for the performance. Included in the museum admission fee (0–20 €).
The work is part of the exhibition In Search of the Present. When no performance is taking place, the space remains open to the public. You are welcome to step inside and rest if you wish.

Reality Research Center (TTK) is a collective of performance art professionals comprising 81 artists. TTK is particularly known for developing new forms of performance, such as site-specific and one-on-one works. Its performances often take place outside traditional stages – on city streets, in forests, and in unexpected everyday spaces – placing the viewer’s experience at the very heart of its work.
WAUHAUS is a Helsinki-based multidisciplinary arts collective founded in 2016. The collective’s works are situated between different genres of art and take place in various contexts, such as theatres, public spaces and museums.
