The last exhibition of the year at Mesta is by Mikhail Shubin, an amateur artist based here in Herttoniemi. His exhibition consists of colourful hand drawn Tarot cards.
It’s worth taking a closer look at each card. You can even purchase your own deck (30 e) by contacting Mikhail directly!
”The origins of Tarot are debated. They were probably designed in 15th century Milan as an education game, illustrating the philosophical principles of mediaeval christian life. Clergy (pope and popess) triumph over civil rulers (emperor and emperors), virtues (Prudence, Justice and Strength) triumph over mundane things, and final judgement triumphs over everything. Around the 18th century, Tarot was appropriated for divination and fortune-telling.”
He creates artworks inspired by architecture, Scandinavian nature, videogames and traditions of European Symbolism.
Herttoniemen coworking-tilamme seinistä kaksi on varattu vaihtuville näyttelyille. Tähän mennessä seinillä on nähty taidetta valokuvasta öljyvärimaalauksiin ja metalligrafiikkaan.
Jos et ole Mestan asiakas, mutta haluaisit käydä tutustumassa näyttelyyn, se onnistuu sopimalla ajankohta etukäteen.
