MAKASIINI EXTRA #6

TIINA PYYKKINEN

In addition to our ongoing exhibitions, we will be showing works from the gallery’s other talented artists on our social media accounts as part of the MAKASIINI EXTRA -series.

Tiina Pyykkinen’s reflective, polychromatic, site-specific works do not let the viewer off easily. The observer is one with the painting; as the viewer moves, the work is transformed in both its colour and content, since both the people around it as well as the surrounding space are reflected in it. The large-format paintings irritate the visual sense intentionally and undermine the relationship between knowledge and perception.
