Noora Nio-Juss’ exhibition \u201cVanishing presence\u201d at Kunsthalle Turku consists of woodcuts, three of which were made with this space in mind, as well as the 2018\u20132020 series \u201cDecomposition\u201d.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

Both the new, large woodcuts and the series explore the idea of fragile presence, isolation and longing. The artist’s concern over the state of the world and humanity is also present in the pieces. This exhibition forms a continuum with her previous exhibitions (\u201cCovered\u201d at Tallinn Art Hall in 2019 and \u201cImagine\u00a0Us\u201d at Gallery Sculptor, Helsinki in 2020).<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

\n

All of the pieces in the exhibition are unique woodcuts with oils. The prints have been produced by manual braying.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n

“Finding my own way of working and expressing myself by means of a new material took some time. Engraving wood is very physical, slow work. The rigid birch plywood creates its own limitations and challenges but is also a rewarding medium.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/blockquote>\n
