MEET THE ARTIST

VILJAMI HEINONEN | DECEMBER 8

 

VILJAMI HEINONEN

 

The leading roles in the Tampere based artist Viljami Heinonen’s works are characterized by grim human figures and the oppressive space that surrounds them, while in many pieces the context constructed around these figures is an abstract reference to the artist’s state of mind or a place that he finds important. A dreamy and surreal appearance creates a Kafka-esque atmosphere, and the colours and anxious characters recall Francis Bacon’s screaming portraits and crude, distorted human bodies.

 

Meet the artist on Sunday December 8, 2019 at 2 pm.
