Artist: Tiina Mielonen

The paintings of Tiina Mielonen float, shimmer and glow. Places and scenes that emerge from the plexiglass seem to draw from both familiar and abstract: fields of colour give birth to recognisable settings and yet, the next moment, it can all break apart into an abstraction. It is self evident that the nature of Mielonen's art is not easily covered, nor put down on paper. When thinking about her works, the sharpest impression lies in the importance of painting: Mielonen has a continuous drive for studying the possibilities of painting.
