Meet the Artists Jarmo Koponen and Jaana Kivi in the galleries on the last day of the exhibitions on Saturday January 27 from 1 PM to 3 PM.

In our Tile and Cellar Galleries Jarmo Koponen's photos from the collection Someplace show places that have made him stop. They have felt significant, each in their own way. These are pictures primarily of time, place and atmosphere, but also of what Koponen finds aesthetically interesting. He does not try to tell a story, but through large-scale prints and details invites the viewer to stop and experience these works, and the places represented by the works, in their own way.

In our Book Gallery Jaana Kivi's exhibition The Cosmic Dreams exhibition series consists of oil and mixed media works in which female figures are in surreal environments, other dimensions and space. The works are connected by dreamlike abstract backgrounds, which are a reference to both the cosmos and the subconscious. In the center are human figures, from whom it is not clear whether they are human anymore.
