Taira Tiger and Rose-Mari Torpo
Dialogue in colour
25.4 - 6.5.2017
Galerie Pleiku, Berlin

Welcome to the opening on Tuesday 25th of April from 7-9 pm

The exhibition consists of paintings of two artists; Taira Tiger and Rose-Mari Torpo. The works presented are conceived through experimentation with different techniques and materials creating a dialogue based on colour. The essence of colour is the shared interest of the two artists. Tiger exhibits ink works on paper and Torpo presents works made with ink, acrylic and spray paint on canvas and on plastic net.
Since it is challenging to submit colour to a logical or verbal analysis, it is difficult to discuss or write about it. The colour affects our subconscious mind, memory and collective history in a unique and irreplaceable way. It touches the non-cognitive, deeply sensorial and irrational level of ourselves.
Colour is a psychological and physical experience of the observer. The viewer with her presence and perception makes the significance of the artwork.

Fender-bender is a metaphor describing the unexpected encounters of the works of three artists. The exhibition consists of Vesa Arjatsalo’s oil paintings, Eeva Honkanen’s ink drawings and Rose-Mari Torpo’s paintings on canvas and plastic net. The visual and conceptual contrapositions of the works create a dynamic and entriguing atmosphere.
Together the artists’ work combine themes such as serenity and restlessness, motion of time and stillness, happiness and uncertainty of being; these contradictions, contrapositions and unforseeable details will capture the attention of audience.

Tammikuun Valo - Sebastian Lindberg, Arttu Sailo, Taira Tiger and Rose-Mari Torpo
Paintings
5.3 - 29.3.2015
Galleria Rantakasarmi

Welcome to the opening on the 4th of March from 5 - 7pm

The exhibition Tammikuun Valo offers four different approaches on experiencing colour, surface and material. Sebastian Lindberg and Arttu Sailo are figurative painters while Taira Tiger’s and Rose-Mari Torpo’s works belong to the abstract painting tradition.
The works elaborate concepts such as harmony, contrast, movement and lack of motion. The groups common denominator is a colour based way of working. The themes in the exhibition are observing the mind and the external world as well as the physical approach to painting. The materiality and the immateriality create contrast between the works and the artists. The viewer participates in the creation of the art work’s concept with his observance and presence.
