The exhibition by a group of seventeen artists from Ida-Viru County who live and work on the border of Europe - geographically, linguistically and culturally. The exhibition 'Deep Skin' offers a glimpse into how the biological boundary of the human body turned into a symbol in art telling stories that transcend linguistic and cultural barriers.

Paintings, sculptures and installations reflect the thoughts and feelings of artists from Ida-Virumaa, emphasising their similarities and differences. A 19-year-old is the youngest participant, and a 70-year-old is the oldest. Among the participants are anime fans, classically educated painters, mothers with an engineering background and young people dreaming of a professional career in arts. What can be said in common by artists of different generations, occupations and opinions? Come and find out!
