RESEARCH RETREAT TO THE RUSSIAN BORDER  
2ND – 3RD June 2025

The retreat began with a railway trip from Helsinki to Parikkala in South Karelia. The train cabinet served as the venue for the first presentations and discussions. The railway journey to Parikkala was followed by a walk across the border region, tracing a ruined railway of approximately 9 km. During the walk presentations were held in different places; such as an embankment in the midst of fields or by the border zone. On the second day, presentations and demos, open to the public, were held in a municipality building. When travelling back to Helsinki, findings and experiences of this retreat were discussed within the group of 20 researchers.

The Research Retreat was organized within the framework of the 6th Uniarts Research Pavilion and was led by Jaakko Ruuska, who has conducted his research on the Russian frontier with the Disconnected Space research group since 2019.

The aim of the proposal A Border as an Intermediate and Indeterminate Zone for the research retreat to the Finnish-Russian border was to share the transitory writing in no one’s land research project´s insights and interests, and furthermore to practice its method of collective and site-responsive writing.
