In Motion - the changes of light and dark in Nordic nature. The description of natural light unites these artists. The light can be soft or hard, and its changes can vary from quiet to dramatic.
Carla Lundell’s breathing, porous paintings resonate with Kaisa Sirén’s airy, impressionistic photographs made by using ICM-technique. Anu Riestola reflects the severity of Lapland’s climate with her strong, contrasty paintings. Maija Vanhatapio examines and reduces curiously Nordic Landscape, its texture, colors and lights in her works.
