in search of the imaginary character / mielikuvitushahmon etsimisestä

Final exam work (BA) from the Lahti Institute of Fine Arts in 2005. The artwork was on display in the final exam exhibition "Sektio" in Art Brewery, Lahti, Finland.

In a dark space there are three miniature models of pieces of land with different houses.

One house is a simple hut located in a dry desert. Another one is a larger house surrouded by bushes. The third house is a tree house located on a stony island. The houses have warm light coming from the inside. There are tiny paintings hidden on the inside walls of each house.

In the corner there is a mound of moss with a hole in the center. Old 16mm film footage is projected on the mouth of the hole.

By the wall there is a windowed door with similar film footage projected onto the window. It is shot from an airplane which is circulating over foreign landscape, never landing.
