Nilsson, BoArja Miller1 editions

The "Figure out" series emphasises hair, behind which the characters in the photographs are mysteriously veiled. The series includes Grünstein's first video installation "All flesh is grass". The name refers to the perishing, temporary nature of everything and is accompanied by movement, and music composed by Morton Feldman. Grünstein emphasises the significance of the location in the large colour photograph works of the "Figure in landscape" series. The landscape sets the stage for stories with no beginning and no end. The colours of the glowing green forest surround the staged, dreamlike, even threatening scenes in the middle ground between the real and the imaginary. In the series 'Malplacâe' (2005), there is a nostalgic dimension, as the artist returns to the placesof her childhood near Hanko. The black and white series 'Zone V' (1998) was born as a result from the artist's travels throughout Eastern Europe. Exhibition: Kiasma, Helsinki (30.04 - 15.08.2010).
