Artwork description

Giuseppe Tartini was a virtuous violinist, the best at his time: he is known for his Devil’s Trill Sonata, Tartini wrote that he made a pact with the Devil in a dream, he commanded the Devil to play a romantic piece; when Tartini woke up he wrote the sonata on the music sheet but it only could be a poor resemblance of what the Devil played. The composition of the Abstract 291 is full of movement and tension, everything seems to converge to a vanishing point in the middle. This is a warm painting with dark and light browns, tones of yellows, ocre and warm grey.

Acrylic on canvas, 2022.

Artist information

I was born in Finland in 1983, and in 2014 I decided to make a major change in my life by moving to Spain. My artistic journey began to take shape in 2019, initially focused on figurative art. A year later, I felt the need to explore new directions and transitioned into abstraction. This style allows my mind to wander freely, offering a deeper sense of imagination and emotional expression than figurative work ever did.

I feel grateful to dedicate myself to what I love most and to continuously learn about the art world—its diversity, its purposes, and the many reasons why people connect with art, whether as meaningful gifts, gallery pieces, or works that bring life to a home or office.
