The piece depicts “a love and care of familiar walls”, a phrase that according to the artist is often associated with a sense of soothing and attentiveness. The text printed on the hands echoes the tears imprinted on the face – a reminder that the love and care of familiar walls might not always be what is expected or hoped for.
The exhibition is supported by Arts Promotion Centre Finland (Taike).
