Hardcover. Jaanus Sammas work is known for queering seemingly harmless subject matters on national identity and representation through an exploration of sexuality and notions of publicness. The concept of folklore also recurs throughout Sammas work as a form of cultural circulation and exchange open to queer reinterpretation. By using traditional techniques, the artist navigates through various modes of communication, which at first seem innocent but on closer inspection reveal an array of gay and queer symbolism. Through archival research he has found ways of broadening sociopolitical perspectives on national and sexual identity by offering alternatives to recontextualize the past.Flow of Patterns is Sammas first monograph and presents works from the past twenty yearsfrom his graduation work on swimming pools to his recent exhibition, Iron Men, which scrutinized masculinity as a form of national representation. The publication is edited by Krist Gruijthuijsen with in-depth essays by Linda Kaljundi, Jeppe Ugelvig, and Leon Kruijswijk.Jaanus Samma is a visual artist based in Tallinn, Estonia. Sammas critical exploration of queer desire, public space, and cultural tradition spans photography, installation, sculpture, and video. Sammas current fields of interest encompass history, ethnography, and museology as well as the intersecting narratives they entail. His work aims to locate queer subjectivity and desire in seemingly hetero-normative spaces. Combining fieldwork, oral history, and archival research, the artist responds to absences of sexual representation by way of storytelling or semantic subversion, as he recovers loaded symbols and signs or inserts them in spaces where they seemingly do not belong.
