Tommi Pasanen ^{Emerging artist}

Artist's country of origin: Finland

I am now finishing my master’s in the painting department of the University of the Arts Helsinki, Academy of Fine Arts. I have presented my works in our bachelors show and now in masters show. I have also participated in few group exhibitions and organized one summer exhibition with my colleague Toivo Heinimäki. My practice is based on painting’s extensive traditions. Material enquiry is at the center of my work and I approach painting as a three-dimensional object, rather than an illusion of an image on canvas. History of oils, pigments and wood and their use in painting has been in my focus in recent years. By creating close relationship with materials I also strengthen my relationship with surroundings. Painting has become a method to familiarize myself with this world.
