Art Speaks for Itself

Video by Annariitta Saarelainen

“With my background in photography, I moved onward to metal art, obtained a degree in audiovisual communication, and have of late landed on sculpture.

I’m currently focused on wood graphics and sculptures.

I see my surroundings through mediums of light and shadow. My roots as a photographer manifest in deep attention to detail and focus on form expression.

In printmaking I reach for the abstract, with minimal lines, but so that the viewer can find glimpses of the urban, of nature and of people.

To me creativity means freedom—let my art speak for itself.”
