For the hair my inspiration is a seaweed called...

Elina Strandberg

Olen kuvanveistäjä ja maalari. Opiskelin Kuvataideakatemiassa vuodesta 1996 ja valmistuin sieltä vuonna 2002 kuvataiteen maisteriksi kuvanveiston osastolta. Tätä ennen opiskelin Taideteollisessa korkeakoulussa (nykyinen Aalto yliopisto) kuvaamataidonopettajalinjalla 80-luvulla.

Susanne Gottberg

Born in Ekenäs, Finland 1964 | Lives and works in Helsinki, Finland.



The imagery in Susanne Gottberg’s paintings comprises quiet, tense moments and situations where something has just departed or will soon occur. In recent years, Gottberg has shifted from depicting nature and sceneries to interiors, examining different elements of furniture, studying fabrics and details of patterns. Gottberg challenges the viewer to experience emptiness and the expectations that come with it.
