Aino Keinänen
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...

Mirja Marsch
Taiteessani pyrin tuomaan esille omaa mielenmaisemaani erilaisten hahmojen kautta.
Ihmisiä kuvaavat teokseni ovat pääosin henkilöistään irrotettuja muotokuvia, niin että ne toimivat omien ajatuksieni ja tunnelmieni välittäjinä. Teoksissani esiintyvät usein myös eläimet, luonto onkin suuressa osassa inspiroitumistani.
Teokseni ovat kirjottuja maalauksia, joihin yhdistän erilaisia tekstiilintekniikoita ja materiaaleja. Teoksilleni on ominaista kerroksellisuus, maalaamisen jälkeen luon niihin toista...

Liikun teoksissani usein meren ja järvien rannoilla tutkien valoa, aikaa ja liikettä. Tavoitteeni on ollut kohdata monin tavoin kaluttu ja kuvattu maisemamme uudella tavalla. Kuvani voivat esimerkiksi kertoa tarinan siitä, mitä kameran edessä on tapahtunut pitkän valotuksen aikana ja tuoda esille asioita, joita silmin ei voi luonnossa havaita. Pyrin tuomaan esiin jonkin lyhyen tapahtuman kulun, ikään kuin sen kameraan tallentuneen historian.
Kuvasarjoissani käsittelen maisemateemaa usealla eri tavalla...
Kaisu Koivisto
Tarkastelen teoksissani luonnon ja kulttuurin liitoskohtia; tapaa, jolla ihminen pyrkii valjastamaan luontoa tarpeisiinsa. Rakennan installaatioita eläinolennoista ja kysyn, miten katsomme eläimiä? Mitä on luonto? Millä lailla ihmisen toiminta jättää jälkiä ympäristöön?
Minua inspiroivat pohjoisen luonnon karunkarheat piirteet ja siinä näkyvät merkit ihmisen ponnisteluista. Teosteni aiheet kumpuavat työskentely-ympäristöstäni.
Työskentelen monivälineisesti; teokseni ovat veistoksia, piirustuksia...
