Oh, the wonderful south – paintings and video; the lush, verdant and lavish versatility of the vegetation in southern countries is compared to the austere and barren features of the north. The historical and architectural idioms were reduced upon their arrival to the north. Org. Artists’ Association of Helsinki & Helsingfors kulturcentral / City of Helsinki Cultural Office

Tuija Markonsalo 18.11.2010 – 11.12.2010
Tuija Markonsalo: Works
The works shift in the area between beauty and ugliness. They are made using items from the lost and found, recycled materials and pearls that cascade in voluminous, immersing masses. The abundance of the works and their strong colors echo the areas in East London dominated by its population with Indian origins.
Young people are the main target audience of this exhibition Org. Artists’ Association of Helsinki & Helsingfors kulturcentral / City of Helsinki Cultural Office

The Blind Spot – paintings; Pihlajakoski's works portray the contemporary society and the shattered people living in it using methods of painting to illustrate its disadvantages – the society’s blind spots: superficiality, melancholy and the feeling of social exclusion.
