Nature is an actor that generates meanings, communicates and is active. The relationship between the beauty of nature and the reality created by humans is contradictory, as it is an encounter between perfect nature and imperfect humanity.
Paavo Paunu has been graduated from the Painting Department at the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts in 1990. He works with paintings, sculptures and installations. Paunu probes the re-lationship between painting and sculpture. Paunu`s production is not limited by the conventi-onal tools of sculpture or painting, nor by any obvious role models, genres or references to theoretical sources. The sound of his works resonates from further away, from out of his own world, which is, nevertheless, human reality. Ideas of differences, boundaries and transcen-dence of them arise out of the works inner world.
