You are invited to <\/span>Surrounded By,<\/span><\/i> an exhibition of works created by Dana Neilson and Tuomo Savolainen while at Gil artist residency. Please join us for light refreshments on Saturday, June 23rd hr. 14 – 17 or on Sunday hr. 14 – 17.<\/span><\/p>\n

The artwork is inspired by city of Akureyri and the surrounding area. \u00a015 views to Mt.S\u00falur<\/em> (Tuomo Savolainen) are landscape drawings inspired by the series 36 views to Mt.Fuji<\/em> by Katsushika Hokusai. \u00a0Portraits of a Coast Town<\/em> (Dana Neilson) is an exploration into the use of found material in ceramics. The work is a mixture of collections, maps and experiments and highlights the process of art making as just as interesting as a final art object.<\/span><\/p>\n

Dana Neilson is a Canadian artist based in Helsinki, Finland. A photographer by education her practice also includes ceramics, sculpture and video art. The overarching theme is her work is the relationship humans have with their environment and how our physical world influences our interior selves. At the moment her main points of inquiry are what\u2019s natural about human nature? Order vs. disorder (culture vs. nature) and ceramics from scratch. She will graduate this spring from Aalto University Finland with a Master\u2019s of Visual Culture and Contemporary Art. Her work has been exhibited in Canada and Finland and she has upcoming exhibitions abroad.<\/span><\/p>\n

Tuomo Savolainen is a Finnish artist who works primarily with installation, video and sound. \u00a0His work deals with expectation, preconceived ideas, the obviously unexpected and humor, whether it\u2019s funny or not. \u00a0He creates films in unanticipated formats as well as far fetched installations of geological, meteorological and cultural phenomena.<\/span><\/p>\n
