Vesa Hjort, Kimmo Kumela & Reija Palo-oja: Group Exhibition

The exhibition features three highly unique ensembles in terms of atmosphere and visual expression.  

They are united by the multi-level nature of their subjects, an interest in exploring their own expression, and the utilization of the diverse possibilities of materials. 

 

In Vesa Hjort’s new works, the process of making itself has become more clearly the focus of the works.  

The purely visual and abstract movement created in the works represents the movements and changes that occur in life – the flow of life.  

 

At the heart of Kimmo Kumela’s artistic work is an interest in precision and care as a counterbalance to playfulness and expressive exaggeration. 

The dark, almost black and white works often depict landscape and contain hints of hidden stories in the works. 
 

Reija Palo-oja’s painting process combines a delicate and distinctive, partly intuitive, expression. 

In her new paintings, the dialogue between different surfaces and fragments creates wholes in which control and chance, planning and impulse coexist.
