About The Artwork
Preparing for the party II is part of a series which is inspired by the photo taken in the 1940s. In the photo, my grandmother is standing at her workplace in the hospital. She worked there as an ward domestic. I noticed how beautifully her hair was styled in the picture. Could her hairstyle in that particular photo tell something about her personality? She has passed away before I was born. That is why even a tiny bit of information or common thing like her hairstyle gets bigger meaning when it comes to telling something (maybe revealing something) about the person and what she was like. This is a part of my serie where I paint moments when a person is styling her/his hair which might also tell something about them and what they are like. These "hairstyle" paintings will allow me to think different times and how and why people have styled their hair. What different meanings behind these actions could be. Also body language which occurs during the hair styling process is interesting. By looking at these paintings You might see beautiful compositions of human body or interpret these paintings how You choose. Acrylic painting on hand-stretched linen canvas. A Certificate of Authenticity included.

As the saying goes, maybe it is the journey that matters. My recent artworks are captured moments of life and the environment in which I live. Starting points for my works are very general, the city where I live, everyday situations, pondering the aging, nice moments, etc. Through my artworks I wonder how much a person can influence the attitude towards the life and how you relate to environment you live in for example. What aspects you choose and do you have the power to choose how you feel, for example, while walking in the dark in November in the evening. Is this the situation which you would rather to avoid, or the opportunity to see the city lights more beautiful than ever against the natural darkness. Sometimes, I try to look at ordinary everyday situations consciously from unusual point of view. Lately I have tried to describe the city I live in through my art from my point of view. I have concentrated to look at this city exactly how I experience it. I work mainly in painting with acrylics on canvas and photography. My portfolio includes the old works I have made. I want to keep them in my portfolio, because I hope I can see and learn by looking at them if there has been happened any development in my working as an artist on my journey. I live in Helsinki, Finland
