Taiteilijan tyttären tarina on alkanut ajopuille ja vanhoille hirsilankuille maalatuista ikonien aiheita mukailevista maalauksista. Ajopuut on löydetty matkoilla Jäämeren rannalta, lankut ovat vanhoista hirsitaloista ystäviltä saatuja. Hirsilankut kätkevät sisäänsä elämäntarinoita. Auringon, hiekan, tuulen, veden ja suolan patinoimissa ajopuissa tuntee luonnonvoimat. Vanha puu kestää kaiken. Minua kiehtoo ajatus ajopuiden lähtösatamista, hirsitalojen tarinoista ja lopulta päätymisestä kuvaksi. Jokainen maalaus on sattumanvarainen. Koskaan ei aloittaessaan voi tietää mite väri imeytyy ja minkä muodon pohja sallii. Kuten elämä, se avautuu ennakoimattomana. Aiheena ikiaikainen äidinrakkaus.
Uusimmat työt on pyhiä hahmoja maalattuina laatoille. Ne kuvastavat samaa muotokieltä, jota myös veistoksissa on nähtävillä. Vakavampien aiheiden rinnalle on tullut myös erilaiset naishahmot.
The story of the artist's daughter has started with paintings on driftwood and old planks of icon motifs. The driftwood has been found on trips on the shore of the Arctic Ocean, the planks are from old log houses from friends. Log planks hide life stories inside them. You can feel the forces of nature in driftwood patinated by the sun, sand, wind, water and salt. Old wood can withstand anything. I'm fascinated by the idea of driftwood starting ports, the stories of log houses and finally ending up as a picture. Each painting is random. When you start, you never know how the color will absorb and what shape the base will allow. Like life, it unfolds unpredictably. The subject is ancient motherly love. The latest works are holy figures painted on tiles. They reflect the same design language that can also be seen in the sculptures. Along with more serious topics, various female characters have also appeared.
