  • Moominpappa and the Vibrant Matter
    Master’s Thesis in Social Exclusion Supervisor: Camilla Kronqvist Faculty of Arts, Psychology and Moominpappa and Theology the Vibrant Matter Åbo Akademi 2020 Tove Jansson’s “Moominpappa at Sea” as an addition to “Vibrant Matter” by Jane Bennet ARWEN MEEREBOER - student nr. 73222 ÅBO AKADEMI – Faculty of Arts, Psychology and Theology Subject: Social exclusion; Philosophy Major Writer: Arwen Meereboer Title: Moominpappa and Vibrant Matter: Tove Jansson’s “Moominpappa at Sea” as an addition to “Vibrant Matter” by Jane Bennet Supervisor: Camilla Kronqvist Supervisor: Emmanuel Acquah As humans we are constantly engaging not only with other humans but with plants, animals, and matter. This thesis examines the way we view our engagement with the materiality of the world around us, by looking at the work of philosopher Jane Bennet on vibrant materiality and author Tove Jansson. Bennet presents an argument that matter can be analysed as active and vibrant. While Western philosophers are used to viewing matter as passive and dead, seeing it as active makes space for different engagement with matter. One of the ways we can start engaging with matter, once we stop thinking of it as passive and dead, is through the lens of ethics. My aim in this thesis is to use Bennet’s and Jansson’s work as a way to consider matter as active and included in the ethical frameworks of the Western philosophical canon. Jansson in her children’s book Moominpappa at Sea shows a possibility for looking at the material world through this ethical lens. This thesis will put these works in conversation by reading both as philosophical works that have nuanced engagement with the topic of how we can be in community with the things that surround us.

  • Tove Jansson's Character Studies for the Moomin
    INTRODUCTION by Tom Devlin, Creative Director at Drawn & Quarterly In 2011, I went to Helsinki and was lucky enough to tour Tove Jansson’s studio. She lived in the same large studio for fifty-seven years. It was easy to picture Tove there. I saw the table she used to write at; I saw the wood-burning stove she used to heat her house during the long winters; I saw the shelves and shelves of books—many her own, or her favorites by other authors, and even the hand-lettered scrapbooks her mother, Signe, made where she stored the strips she clipped from the newspaper. I saw the tiny alcove with the even tinier bed she had slept in for years. It was surprising how modest the whole place was. As far as I knew she was Finland’s greatest literary celebrity, and yet she had lived such a simple life. Of course, I should have known this before I stepped over the threshold. It’s in her books. It’s visually manifest in her comics. The Moomins them- selves live modest lives. They have many adventures but home is simple and comforting and there is nothing unnecessary. Rereading these comics just before preparing this book, it struck me just how much of Tove we get in these stories. The Moomin stories (whether in chapter book, picture book, or comic form) all have a similar quality—a quality that is rare in today’s world. There’s a distinctly carefree, individualist vibe mixed with a hint of playful cynicism, a kind of embrace-life-and-live-it-to-its- fullest-but-maybe-don’t-get-too-carried-away ethos.

  • Exhibition “Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles” Coming to National Children’S Museum in D.C
    Exhibition “Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles” coming to National Children’s Museum in D.C. August 13, 2021 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Moomins, the beloved fairytale creatures living in Moominvalley and created by Finnish author Tove Jansson, are the subject of a visiting exhibition at National Children’s Museum as of September. The upcoming exhibition, on loan from the world’s only Moomin Museum located in Tampere, Finland, showcases the universal values of the Moomins, such as equality, inclusion and respect for nature. The exhibition, Moomin Animations – Thrills and Cuddles, which is brought to the United States by the Embassy of Finland in Washington D.C., will open at National Children’s Museum on September 3, 2021, and will be on display inside the Visiting Exhibit Hall until January 9, 2022. This is the first time this exhibition travels abroad. It highlights the rich history of Moomin animations, which are based on the Moomin books and comic strips created by the renowned Finnish artist and author Tove Jansson (1914–2001). The Moomins are white and roundish fantastical characters with large snouts. The Moomin family and their friends live an adventurous life in the idyllic and peaceful Moominvalley. “The Moomins always treat nature with respect and live in harmony with the environment. The Moomin values, such as compassion and open-mindedness, are current, independent of time and place, and more relevant than perhaps ever before. As we follow the stories of Moomintroll’s growth and encounters, we can learn more about our own humanity, relationships and emotions,” explains Roleff Kråkström, Managing Director of Moomin Characters.

With joint business planning as well as shared international growth plans and initiatives, Fiskars Group, Rights & Brands and Moomin Characters aim to develop new consumer-centric concepts globally. 70 years after Tove Jansson designed the first Moomin dishes together with her mother for the Arabia brand, now owned by Fiskars Group, Fiskars Group and Moomin Characters join forces in an unforeseen way to create more memorable moments together. The new arrangement with Fiskars Group as a minority shareholder in Rights & Brands (R&B), the long-time, worldwide licensing and master Moomin agent, solidifies the unique partnership and grants Fiskars Group access to a wide portfolio of R&B’s beloved brands, including the Moomins. “This is an outstanding moment for us, as two iconic Finnish design powerhouses join forces to go even more global and tap into new geographies beyond our existing markets.

By Jo Glanville June 12, 2020 Updated 8:30 a.m. ET Tove Jansson’s Moomins might be Finland’s most famous exports. The author and illustrator is a cherished national icon and, for Finnish readers, her enchanting, snout-nosed characters offer not just an escape into a magical world, but a vision of a Nordic good life in which every creature counts. So when the company that owns the rights to Ms. Jansson’s work, Moomin Characters, joined in a proposal to turn a beloved Helsinki landmark into a commercial development that would include a Tove Jansson museum, there was outrage. To critics of the plan, it looked as if the Moomins were selling out. Tove Jansson published nine books in the Moomin series between the 1940s and 1990s, 1 / 7 12/06/2020 klo 16.26 The Moomins Meet a Real-Estate Developer, and Outrage Ensues... https://www.nytimes.com/2020/06/12/arts/finland-moomins-lapi... as well as Moomin picture books and comic strips.

    Marsh, J., Nordström, A., Sairanen H., & Shkul, M. (2019). Making the Moomins. In Kumpulainen, K. (Ed.), Sefton-Green, J. (Ed.). Multiliteracies and Early Years Innovation. London: Routledge, https://doi.org/10.4324/9780429432668 Making the Moomins A Finnish/English adventure Jackie Marsh, Alexandra Nordström, Heidi Sairanen, and Minna Shkul Introduction The Moomins are characters in a popular set of tales written by Swedish- speaking Finnish writer and artist Tove Jansson (1914–2001), first published in Finland in 1945 (Westin, 2014). The Moomin family, hippopotamus-like crea- tures, live in Moominvalley, and have featured in numerous movies and television programs. Jansson’s books about the Moomin family have been translated into 45 languages, and are among the most widely translated works of Finnish literature (Kurhela, 1996). A TV series of the Moomins was aired in the United Kingdom in the 1980s, but since then, English children’s main introduction to the Moomin world has been through Jansson’s books. This chapter outlines a project that was undertaken in a primary school in Sheffield, England, with a class of 6- and 7-year-old children, in which they engaged with the Moomins, first through the stories and books, but then through a series of maker activities in which they created Moomin artifacts using paper, clay, card, and Virtual Reality (VR) apps, among other materials. The children in the Sheffield class also communicated with a group of children from an Early Childhood Education and Care (ECEC) center in Helsinki, Finland, using WhatsApp, to find out about the Moomins and their land of origin, with the Finnish children providing an authentic audience for the English children’s work.

Commons, which reports that this image is in the public domain under Art was always at the center of Jansson's life. Her father, Viktor Jansson, was a Finnish copyright law. sculptor, and her mother, Signe Hammarsten Jansson, was a graphic artist and illustrator. Her younger brothers also pursued careers in the arts, Per Olov becoming a photographer, and Lars a writer and comic-strip artist. The family lived in Helsinski, where Tove Marika Jansson was born on August 9, 1914. They were, however, ethnically Swedish and part of the Swedish-speaking minority in Finland. This, combined with growing up in a rather bohemian family and eventually recognizing her lesbianism, gave Jansson a sense and appreciation of otherness; nevertheless, the closeness of her family and her deep understanding of a sense of place grounded her both in belonging to her social unit and her larger culture, a dichotomy that would inform her writing. The Jansson family spent their summers at a cottage on an island in the Gulf of Finland, a place that delighted and inspired her. In later years, she stated, "Had it not been for my very happy childhood, I might never have started writing . I never wrote entirely for children at all--maybe it was just for myself, to find a way back to the lost world of adventures with happy endings, to the confidence, the constant curiosity, and the boundless possibilities, never questioned, .
