PAINTINGS – Aleksi Matikainen
The works are a kind of statement on the experience of otherness in our time. In my works, strangeness and oblivion appear as external distortions of human figures. My work process feels like a kind of tightrope walking, where I find the swaying more important than the endpoint. Painting is sometimes very “expressive tearing” with randomness, which I consider essential and a broader tool for thinking in my work.
