The artist will be present on the occasion.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>The exhibition preview for invited guests on Thursday, 9 June from 1 to 7 pm. Welcome!<\/strong><\/p>\n<div class=\"wpb_text_column wpb_content_element \">\n<div class=\"wpb_wrapper\">\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>Katja Syrj\u00e4<\/strong> has made numerous trips across the world in pursuit of her passion for natural pigments. In this exhibition, she follows researchers on field trips to the natural laboratory of the \u00c5land islands. The result is a multifaceted body of boundary-defying graphic art. The exhibition also features Syrj\u00e4\u2019s account of the fascinating process of creating the works.<\/p>\n<p>Working on her stone lithographs by painting and stitching, Syrj\u00e4 combines medieval painting traditions with the contemporary context of art. Meticulously following the methods of 14th-century Tuscan painter <strong>Cennino Cennini<\/strong> , she creates unique works with natural pigments that she makes from soils, minerals, plants, mushrooms and mussels collected or grown by herself. Meanings conveyed by the pigments are a vital part of the content of the works.<\/p>\n<p>The holistic nature and use of age-old methods in Syrj\u00e4\u2019s process speak of her profound respect for nature, craftsmanship and the traditions maintained by women in particular. The title of the exhibition, <em>Miss Veronica<\/em>, is a reference to the Latin name of the spiked speedwell, <em>Veronica spicata L<\/em>., but also to the artist\u2019s alter ego as an explorer. Her role models include women artists of the past as well as female explorers from different centuries. For example, <strong>Margaret Mee<\/strong>, who is known to have drawn exclusively from life, spent 24 years in search of a perfect specimen of the moonflower, which she eventually found the Amazon rainforest. Syrj\u00e4 is just as fascinated by her own subjects from the \u00c5land islands, which include the decades-long metapopulation study of the Granville fritillary (<em>Melitaea cinxia<\/em>) and its network of meadow habitats, the spring larva census, the growths of powdery mildew on host plants, or the diversity of the underwater world. She also takes a stand in defence of small and common species when she photographs nettles or celebrates biodiversity by portraying the scarab beetle <em>Nimbus contaminatus<\/em>, the hover fly, or the <em>Calocoris roseomaculatus<\/em> bug .<\/p>\n<p>Katja Syrj\u00e4 (b. 1973) is a visual artist based in \u00c5land. She graduated from the Turku School of Drawing in 1997 and from the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts in 2003. Her principal mediums are stone lithography, natural pigments and handmade paper, but her methods also include painting, stitching, photography and video. Syrj\u00e4\u2019s practice is distinguished by her collaboration with biological field research stations and researchers in the \u00c5land islands. Her 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.<\/p>\n<p>Syrj\u00e4\u2019s work is supported by the Kone Foundation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]<strong>For further information<\/strong><br \/>\nCurator
