Mari Rantanen
The relationship between order and chaos is both exciting and problematic. I want to organize chaos and to disturb order in my work. I have a desire to say many things at the same time.

The beauty of human complexity is given form in Mari Rantanen’s (1956, Finland) abstract paintings. She combines the many shapes, patterns, systems and colors with which every culture is filled and celebrates contradictions, for energy is generated when differences and extremes interact—a vigorous impulse, vibrantly on display in Rantanen’s work.
