Heli Kemiläinen: Connecting – Exhibition of drawings
Description
Detailed pencil drawings that reflect on different themes of life through animal characters, nature and various objects.
The Connecting exhibition consists of more than ten pencil drawings that focus on the search for connection with oneself, emotions, other people and nature. The series consists of detailed pencil drawings that allow the viewer to stop to observe and explore what they see. The works are stories, each with its own underlying phenomenon. The exhibition consists of pencil works in which I reflect on different themes of life through animal characters and elements of nature. The exhibition draws on the tradition of pencil drawing.
The works are a process, taking time to marvel at the versatile possibilities of a pencil. Drawing as a creative method is in itself a valuable journey into stories – at its best, it offers an opportunity for contemplation, a meditative state.
Opening event on 23 April at 17.00–19.00 – hope to see you there!
The exhibition was selected for the programme through an open call at Annantalo. During the spring of 2025, Annantalo received 230 applications, from which the Annantalo student jury selected six artists for the second floor galleries and the joint exhibition downstairs.
