Artist Jaana Partanen’s Mental Alchemy trilogy is getting its final touches in the artist’s hands. The first part of the series, Harry Potter layer, saw the light of day in 2011. Its 3D photographic artworks transported the spectator’s to the secrets of the mind and consciousness through portraits of people versed in them. The middle […]

At the same time with the Backlight’14 photography festival, the Voipaala Art Centre presents artist Jaana Partanen’s Mental Alchemy – Harry Potter layer exhibition. Both present interesting perspectives to photography. Harry Potter layer includes mobile 3D photographic works whose contents change according to the viewpoint. An artwork in which electroencephalograms fly in the air changing […]
Jaana Partanen’s exhibition Mental Alchemy – Matrix Layer has brought to the visitors to the Kuopio Art Museum not only a breeze from the 3D world, but also a chance to participate in the artwork. Sensors that recognise a person entering the showroom and capture him or her along to the fractal world reflected on […]
Jaana Partanen’s Matrix layer (2014) will come to its home turf, when the exhibition opens at the Kuopio Art Museum on 12th June. Every exhibition project is one of a kind, but a little something extra to this brings the fact that this is the art museum of our own town ─ familiar building, familiar […]
Artist Jaana Partanen’s book Dream’s Gift will be published at the Salo Art Museum on the 8th of May at 10 a.m. The book project dating from years ago is suddenly topical again, if only because this is the first time it meets the printing press. It also indicates the continuum of thoughts and exciting convergences […]
From scheduling to visions. From wholes to details. From sleepless nights to the joys of success. From doubt to certainty. That is what artistic processing is. The work of years is nearing its goal! Researchers, musicians, software experts, professional designers, furniture manufacturer, loudspeaker and projector companies, dancers and circus performers – all have worked together […]
Jaana Partanen’s Matrix exhibition is a wholly new kind of art experience. Art delves into the wonder world of dreams with new, unprecedented means. It is also an unprecedented spatial world of experience that requires new kinds of furniture to be developed. What was needed were a safe ”nest” for using 3D Mixed Reality glasses […]
The over two-year journey of the Z Vector visualisation program, based on real-time graphics and created by Janne Karhu and myself, began from a spontaneous music video project. Through the music, it moved to the stages of the world and from there to the Matrix layer exhibition. People in the industry know how difficult the […]
The sound environment of dreams? That is the question that I have actively pondered when designing the music work for the Mental Alchemy – Matrix layer exhibition. The question is really difficult.

Arjen alkemiaa -trilogia (Tuhkimo, Ruusunen ja Oikea Prinsessa) nähtiin kokonaisuudessaan Suomen Valokuvataiteen museossa 2007. Mielen alkemiaa -trilogia (Harry Potter, Matrix ja Avatar layer) on työnalla ja osittain kiertää jo maailmalla. Avaruuden alkemiaa -trilogia tulee päättämään alkemiaa -aiheisten näyttelykokonaisuuksien sarjan. Entisaikojen alkemistit pyrkivät muuttamaan arvottoman arvokkaaksi. Alkemiaa -trilogia pyrkii samaan tässä ajassa, niin arjen, mielen kuin ideologioiden tasolla.
