Ei Pelkoa Painting

Anna Kiljunen is a Finnish American painter who currently lives and works in Brooklyn, NY / USA. She works with various materials and techniques; coinciding with building and destroying. Not to forget the emotional spectrum of humanity, desires and passions, and its converse. She works predominantly in oil, but also frequently uses acrylic, ink, pastel and pencil. Sculptural elements and diverse surfaces are made of plaster, beeswax, acrylic, wood, thread and collage. Interest in philosophy, psychology and science influence her work, but, above all, the main influences come from her life experience. Constantly researching and seeking, what is hidden below the surface.
