Joakim Sederholm

I live and work on the island of Wessö, Borgå. My main material is wood, but allso ironplate, ceramics, stone, broze. The expression often takes the shape of a human figure or a dog. The colours have become more important lately.

Petri Yrjölä

Petri Yrjölä maalaa kerros kerrokselta, harkiten ja mietiskellen. Pääsääntöisesti suurikokoisten öljymaalausten lähtökohdat ovat luonnossa – taivas aina avaruuteen asti, vesi ja sen eri olomuodot ja erityisesti metsä ja puut. Näistä elementeistä syntyvät näkymät kuitenkin symboloivat jotain suurempaa ja syvempää.

Petri Yrjölä on tumman valon mestari, pimeän ja tumman kautta kulkija, mutta jossain on aina myös valo. Vellova virta nappaa mukaansa ympäristön värit, huurteinen lammen pinta heijastaa...

In my art, I represent human beings in relation to themselves, to each other and being human in general. I am interested in the connection between body and mind: I try to describe feelings and states of mind by picturing the positions of a body, paying less attention to the face. In my artworks, concrete elements of nature have a function as building materials. For the human bodies, I am especially inspired by beach pebbles and stones on a sea shore. For the hair my inspiration is a seaweed called...

"Pääasiallinen työskentelytekniikkani on akryylimaalaus. Yhdistän siihen spraymaaleja ja joskus öljyvärejä. Olen kiinnostunut maalauksen kokemuksellisuudesta ja tunnistettavuuden rajalla tasapainoilusta. Yhdistän maalauksissani esittävää ja abstraktia ilmaisua ja minua kiehtoo, missä vaiheessa muodot alkavat esittää jotain, milloin ne taas viittaavat vain itseensä.

Maalausprosessini lähtee usein liikkeelle eri lähteistä poimimistani kiehtovista tai häiritsevistä kuvista. Esimerkiksi Red Lake...

ARTIST STATEMENT

I make art by exploring science. By studying astrobiology and theories of physics I try to understand the world. My paintings are a mix of realism and abstraction. I seek tones of lights, shadows and reflections when painting, and when visualizing the invisible I use innovative techniques.

- Because world is full of emptiness and the emptiness is full of motion. Because the life is a ripple in the everlasting flow of the energy. Because the physics is all...
