From the beginning of the year 2021 to 2023 I will work together with researchers and biological field stations
in Åland Islands. Supported by the Kone Foundation, I aim to use my artistic and scientific work to explore
Åland’s colour palette and scientific stone lithographs. I am fascinated by the history of graphics and how it is
aimed at sharing pictorial information. The achievements of great explorers would have a very different
legacy without the pictures drawn and painted during their travels. I wish to revive the role of drawers and
artists in the production of science. My art practice and process is not unlike scientific research: its temporal
duration is typically long and it involves engagement with the conservation of species and protection of
biodiversity.
