”HARRI LARJOSTO – AN ARTIST WHO CREATES WORLDS
Although a deep relationship with nature and the mystery of being human are Larjosto’s big themes, the presence of memories, the subconscious and dreams bring surrealism into kinship.”

The background of my Genesis 2.0 pictures is my own creative process. My part in the world and my experience of nature, with which I have a deep relationship. Knowledge and time build layers that are not just the crystal gurgling of streams and the beauty of light. There are dams, mudslides, grief and death.
Man’s part is globally set – to be a consumer. I have been thinking about another utopia. Practicing art has not brought an answer, but it has opened interesting perspectives.
