In the exhibition, Aino Louhi presents works related to her picture book Tähtienvälinen avaruus (Suuri Kurpitsa 2022). The story, aimed at adults, is a study on loneliness, and uses metaphors to reflect on things like the difficulty of an encounter, the longing for love and the acceptance of loneliness. Louhi has created around 160 egg tempera paintings for the book.
Louhi learned the tempera painting technique for the book and made illustrations full-time for almost two years. The exhibition features twenty original illustrations as well as installations related to the book and the method of making.
”Learning a new technique for the book was fascinating. In the exhibition, in addition to the originals, I will present the working stages of tempera as well as objects and things related to the world of the book,” says Louhi.
