Santeri Tuori (FI)
Santeri Tuori has been engaging with the properties of nature and its power of change over the past two decades. Forests, skies, water lilies, and wind are only some of the basic elements you might find in any Nordic landscape, and all become items of Tuori's interest and observation. His subjects have their roots in traditional landscape painting and drawing as seen in the watercolors of William Turner or the biblical paintings of El Greco.
Santeri Tuori (b. 1970 in Espoo, Finland) has received a Master of Law degree from the University of Helsinki in 1999, and obtained Bachelor (2000) and Master of Arts (2003) degrees in photography at Aalto University. Since 1997, his works have been shown in numerous solo and group exhibitions and are included in the collections of the Espoo Museum of Modern Art, the Finnish Museum of Photography, the FRAC Haute-Normandie, the Malmø Art Museum, and the Museum of Contemporary Art Kiasma, as well as countless private collections worldwide. He is a member of The Helsinki School focusing on contemporary landscape and nature photography.
