There is a lingering suspicion that along with previous generations several important skills, interesting stories, and secret knowledge has been lost. But it is also possible that this knowledge was lost the day before yesterday or a few years ago.

 

In the clutter of abandoned garage boxes you can find decades of peoples’ lives and explorations. “Õnne masin” (The Happiness Machine), which is the opening exhibition of the Microgallery planned on the site of a garage box on Lubja street, seeks to analyze, reconstruct, and unreservedly mystify one such forgotten garage and its contents. The exhibition is accompanied by evening presentations of the research report.
