 ABOUT

“Nurminen’s paintings are like autobiographical notes or messages, which she uses to give permanent shape to her memories and experiences, and the accompanying emotions, while also making them accessible to the rest of us. The primary elements in her works are light, colour and line, which together form something that is hard to put a name to, and yet is clearly recognizable.”

Timo Valjakka 

“Nurmisen maalaukset ovat eräänlaisia omaelämäkerrallisia merkintöjä tai viestejä, joiden avulla hän Nurminen saattaa muistonsa ja kokemuksensa ja niihin liittyvät tunteet pysyvään muotoon ja samalla meidän kaikkien ulottuville. Oleellista hänen teoksissaan ovat valo, väri ja viiva, joista yhdessä muodostuu jotain vaikeasti nimettävää, mutta samalla selvästi tunnistettavaa.”

Timo Valjakka

Borderline

Painting has from its archaic origins been an art of suggestion and make-believe. The works of Tiina Elina Nurminen are encouraging us to use our senses and enter into the fields of visuality.”

Nähdä vaaleanpunaista

“Maalausjälki Nurmisen teoksissa on myös dokumentti maalaamisesta toimituksena, fyysisenä, kehollisena ja inhimillisenä tekona. Jälki kertoo ajattelusta liikkeen takana, sekä käden ja ajatuksen yhteistyöstä.”

“Nurminen knows what the eye and mind are capable of, but does not let them off easily.

Romantikko katsoo ylevää maisemaa

“…Työn kuluessa hän antaa kuitenkin maalausprosessin ottaa vallan siinä määrin, että lähtökohta miltei katoaa siveltimenvetojen kuohuihin,”

Hothouse of Painting

Nurminen nevertheless cleverly avoids being overtly autobiographical and leaves us space and room to manoeuvre our way in and out of her works.
