Easily one of the most interesting artists currently in Finland.
Again, works of art that I couldn’t produce myself. Simple, one sentence ideas executed with apparent ease. Things that make you go “Damn, Why I didn’t invent that!”.
“I built myself an island” 2008 (?)

Ok, maybe it’s safe to say that this guy is one of my favorite artists with his simple, humble and brilliant objects and sculptures.
Heavily rooting in untrendy surrealism he gains extra points. Everything that is not clearly trying be “contemporary”, “current” or based in some latest isms these days is really fucking positive. These objects seem like they are found from some dusty, strange, fucked-up antique store.
Artistic counterparts are derived from the likes of Christian Boltanski and Louise Bourgeois with extra semi-mechanical limb.

Why there isn’t more performances like this?
Priceless.
Another painter with works I like. Dedicated and hardworking, using deep subtle textures and layers. As you can see. At time a little bit too illustrational though.
