Vapaa ’26 Graduation Exhibition
Taina Hakala's exhibition Moments
in Gallery Vaaga 19th March -5th April
Opening on Wednesday 18th March 5-8 pm,
welcome!
Hakala is a third year student.
Hakala's exhibition consists of works mostly from 2024-2026, aquarelles, oil paintings and couple of clay works. Hakala is interested in rhythms and spaces, remote horizon as well as familiar curtains shutting the world outside.
Again and again she stares in distance, looking the rhythm and different shades of color of the waves. Again and again she finds herself trying to capture the intimate feeling of the space at home, behind the curtains. Again and again she is fascinated by the light sparkling on the sequin dress.
