In her second solo exhibition at Galleria Franco Soffiantino, Petra Lindholm combines for the first time video, photography and pottery, even if her work continues to be prevalently focused on the use of video. The Finnish artist’s films do not have a structured storyline. They are tales based on the subtle nuances of the colours and the emotions portrayed, presenting extremely intimate and sophisticated dimensions that are able to conjure up atmospheres of tension. The enchanting images of her works are then complemented by the soundtrack: a combination of environmental sounds and noises that are enriched by the music and lyrics composed and performed by the artist herself.
