Estonian National Museum opened it’s new building in 2016. “Encounters” is one of two permanent exhibitions in the building featuring 3600m2 of exhibition space. I was commisioned to develop and design a series of physical interactive multimedia exhibits spread around the whole exhibition. Heavy and everlasting materials of concrete, glass and iron are mixed with ephemeral layers of projections, sounds and electronics. The mix of different physical and virtual materials create a strong physical experience conveying the messages from the past and allows traveling on the historic timeline. 20 new installations were created together with curators and scientists of the museum.
