Venla Ekebom: Solitude
The artwork can sometimes be dark, unnerving or foreboding. At times it can seem funny or slightly skewed. There is often a sense of larger narrative at play that affects the atmosphere and feel of the paintings. Something tragic or traumatic? Maybe post apocalyptic? Has the nature taken over and the humans suddenly gone extinct? Or are they forced to live or behave in new ways?
Erno Pennanen: Many Worlds
Erno Pennanen (b. 1989) is a painter whose work focuses on figure. He uses photography in his work as a reference. When painting, the portrait of a person disappears. The figure takes on a new form which becomes the most essential part of the dynamics in the painting. In his paintings, Erno also puts his focus on color, and approaches the correlations and borders of modern science and art. On a closer look, the surface of the paintings form layers, of which the thinnest are like curtains of color particles rubbed on the canvas
