Tervetuloa sivustolle
Forever pessimistic, feet on the ground, up to her knees, a slight cape of doubt on
her shoulders. And pulling another one, just like her, behind her….”
The themes for my sculptures often refer to proverbs and jokes – to all that comes out
of people´s mouth. Verbal expression has always fascinated me. Dialects, metaphors-
in general all communication between people interests me, even speechless
communication with gestures. Also social themes interest me.
Regardless of the seriousness of my themes or perhaps because of it, I enjoy dealing
with them with slight irony. For me irony is in a way which is written into us Finns.
Slightly stiff and slightly stiffly. Slightly mischievously. Slight gleefully, enviously.
