A bronze Minna Canth has been sitting on the table of our studio for three years. With its august presence, it has reminded us of inner values and the sublimity of objectives. With its gaze, it has provoked us to do just as we feel right in our innermost. Indeed, much has happened in these […]
The temporary protective walls have been dismantled and the dusts wiped from the glimmering floor of the floor of the renovated entrance hall of the Kuopio University Hospital. The sculptural stairs are waiting for those wanting to exercise. The large windows of the cafeteria give onto an atmospheric garden to be renovated. The cafeteria’s monolithic […]

The most exotic aspects of an artist’s life are airports, lonely nights far from home, foreign languages and the hustle and bustle in the streets.

Helsinki has the Stockmann clock and Kuopio the stairway of the University Hospital. New times give way to newer ones as the escalator under prohibition of use disappears, being replaced by a sculptural stairway. The planning, demolition and construction each require hundreds of working hours. That stairway of the Kuopio University Hospital has surely brought […]

The sampling spaces of the Kuopio University Hospital were opened at the turn of the year. The curved red veneer walls invite into the homely ward rooms.

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.
