Garden

Garden, by Finish Jeweller  Helena Lehtinen
In this solo exhibition Helena produced series of work looking into function of the memory.


Helena's work contain imagination of thinking of how the garden in full bloom might be look, in winter, under the snow. is that blight yellow blossom? or blue glasses underneath? 
Remind me of smell of fresh garden in front of myself,


The works are almost like Scandinavian silkscreen print, but in tactile quality, in three dimensional,
yet by the light the beads are sparkly and full of lively.

In Scandinavian during the winter, having only short period of daylight, all covered in powder snow white, The landscape is almost in monochrome world,  the snow covered the landscape and project the silhouette of the shadow project on top of each other, on white background.


Yet, from the street, the house from the window, insides are all lit up by candlelight and soft indirect illumination, and with bright Scandinavian beautiful textile curtain.

Helena's imagination of garden were beautifully displayed in a gallery space, almost like the Scandinavian winter afternoon... on the street on the way home, when daylight goes down and street light and all the houses are lit up.

 

Her used of material combination and the choice of colour create this imaginative plant for the body.

I really enjoyed the show, remind me of beautiful Swedish winter.
