Tomáš Jetela: Morning Star

Czech painter Tomáš Jetela combines figurative imagery with abstract approach, which he explores through painting, drawing and collage. His striking expressionism is concentrated on the human inner life, revealing it as constantly evolving.  

Riiko Sakkinen: Works on Panama Papers 

Riiko Sakkinen is known for his drawings and paintings highlighting the world’s economic and social problems. Sakkinen’s ‘turborealism’ challenges the traditional pictorial storytelling and uses characters and products from popular culture, turning the product’s message on its head. 

Perttu Mäkelä: Field Trip 

Perttu Mäkelä’s works move between figurative and abstract art. The nature seems to be ever-present, and the inspiration comes from the meadows the artist himself has planted and that are full of life during the summer months. His clear lines and seamlessly blending colours bring out delicate and multidimensional compositions.
