Karoliina Hellberg and Essi Kuokkanen are featured in the Freshly Painted exhibition at Sara Hildén Art Museum in Tampere. The exhibition showcases the work of 22 young female artists, living and working in Finland and primarily using painting as their artistic medium.
The name and exhibition concept were suggested by Marika Mäkelä, as a nod to Rakastettu kuva exhibition held in Tampere in 1986, one of the first exhibitions in Finland to showcase exclusively female-created art in a male-dominated art world. To coincide with the exhibition, Sara Hildén Art Museum has published an illustrated catalogue featuring an article by Anna Tuori. Freshly Painted runs until 30 August 2026.
