Administration's two parts form a whole with allusions to the sea and
freedom . The sea is what unites us Åland and also unites us with the
outside world . With the work of art form , I wanted to create an
opening in the chamber . mirror effect makes waves " live " but also
blends in with the surroundings by showing its colors .
Jury's
appreciation
Administration '' , which is stylized with a naturalistic element , has
both a two and a tredimensionalitet in the room . Painting and
sculpture in harmony with and complementary. Art Board painting in the
middle taking up the soft and warm and provides a perspective in the
room . At the same time also gives the sculptural metal waves due to
form a soft impression , despite the hard material . The shiny material
leads the viewer to associate the attributes typical Åland Sea and
solglitter . The artist has used the room through artwork grows up
towards the ceiling and gives an impression of infinity . The work is
very aesthetically pleasing and blends with the building and the colors
and shapes .
