ARTIST

Jaakko Mattila

Jaakko Mattila is a Helsinki-based artist, who is known for his subtle use of color and variations of round shapes. “I make works about the nature of light and illusions of space in two-dimensional formats. My process involves the whole spectrum of colours and is basically subtracting light by adding pigments on things. In printmaking I specialise in multi-plate aquatint etchings.”
