Tuomas Korkalo

Tuomas Korkalo (1978, Rovaniemi) is a Finnish artist, painter and curator currently based in Rovaniemi, Finnish Lapland / Finland. He studied Fine Arts at Imatra Art School (Imatra, Finland) wherefrom he graduated in 2008. Korkalo paints draw and create art installations. The abstract and geometric forms that Korkalo employs on canvas are evocative of early 20th-century aesthetics as seen in the Bauhaus and avant-garde movement for example. Unlike the Bauhaus aesthetics, he implements watercolour -like technique in his art that adds a complementary lightness to his works. In these works, the geometric and colourful compositions, employed on the canvas by the artist, function by themselves, creating a comforting feeling derived from the pureness of form and symmetry. He has had solo and group exhibitions in Finland and abroad since 2000. Tuomas Korkalo is a member of the Finnish Paintes´union.
