OUTSIDER – Dreams in Matter, Joonas Turunen

Turunen uses a wide range of techniques and materials to construct a reality that deviates from the familiar just enough to turn meanings upside down. The unifying element of the works is the sense of being an outsider, serving as an experiential background and perspective on the subjects addressed, such as faith, knowledge, and truth. The artist reflects these themes across various areas of life, including marketing and product production, religion, science, and security. He explores these themes through the world of objects, delving into the values and beliefs that guide our actions by creating altered versions of objects from our material world.
