Uru Valter

Uru Valter (formed in 2023) is an artist collective that emerged at the Estonian Academy of Arts, consisting of Ats Kruusing, Eke Ao Nettan, and Erik Hõim. Their first public appearance as a group took place at the Pražské kreativní centrum, where they presented the durational performance Fields in May, later re-enacted at  Tallinn Art Hall’s Lasnamäe Pavilion during the finissage of the exhibition Hold Me Tender. The collective draws inspiration from its immediate surroundings, driven by self-initiated practices, post-irony, and sample culture. In their collaborative creation, each member brings their own individual artistic foundations to the table – only to let them go in the process of making the work.
