Ainu Palmu: Syksyt ovat lähtöjä / Fall is for leaving

Constallation of light dots faking to be vague, 2019

Syksyt ovat lähtöjä / Fall is for leaving is an exploration to the idea of seeing a two dimensional shape emerge from dots that are situated in three dimensions. Form appears when they are seen from a specific spot. The work was also set to the scenery following the shape of what really was there to bring out a new image.
