Information provided by the Artist: Finland-born, Berlin-based photographer Vilma Leino focuses on self-portraiture, which she uses to ponder solitude and challenging psychological stages. In her work, she creates female characters with untold stories, experimenting with strong colour schemes, performance, and the human body in her portrayal. Her photographs often balance beauty and horror, using humour to counter darker thematic explorations. Her photographs are a one-woman show, where being in control and the fear of losing it are in a constant dialogue, forming a story about personal growth, where fears are forming into strength. Leino’s work has been exhibited in multiple galleries internationally, including in Berlin, New York, Chicago, and Lyon. Most recently, she presented her solo exhibition “Blueberry Fields” at Pragovka Gallery in Prague.
