Aleksi Salminen

About the artist

“I observe the world, marvel at us and it.  

I don’t know where I’m going, but I follow my subconscious. Lately, my observations have taken the form of video and photography. The works explore societal phenomena and what it means to exist as a human in the world.  

I’m drawn to raw, unpolished aesthetics. I feel that spectacular, showy art easily starts to resemble a product or entertainment. Flaws in art make the work more human and personal.”  

Aleksi Salminen (b. 1993) creates works based on his observations of life. The subjects may be mundane or personal experiences. The works are simple and easy to understand. Salminen works with digital video and photography.
