Tampere Film Festival\u2019s new colorful look has earned praise for its abundant deliciousness. The abstract painting is a joint effort by artists Inka Hannula<\/b> and Teemu Raudaskoski<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\u2013 When we began, we didn\u2019t have a name for the piece, but came up with Otto 1<\/i> (meaning Take 1<\/i>) in honour of Tampere Film Festival. The festival commissioned the\u00a0 piece and it was painted completely intuitively and without a premeditated plan, Inka Hannula says.<\/p>\n

The piece plays a central role in the festival\u2019s trailer, directed by Sami S\u00e4np\u00e4kkil\u00e4<\/b>.<\/p>\n

\u2013 It was painted almost entirely with S\u00e4np\u00e4kkil\u00e4 filming the process, making the starting point and the project itself extremely intriguing.<\/p>\n

The piece, playing with shape and colour, emerged from the improvisation between the two artists, where their different styles blend into one, inseparable entity.<\/p>\n

\u2013 When we work on a piece, we paint simultaneously, rotating the canvas between us, Hannula describes.<\/p>\n

\u2013 In keeping with the tradition of improvisation, we say yes<\/i> to each other\u2019s suggestions and continue each other\u2019s work, commenting with colours and shapes. The finished piece is always a surprise and the working process is so intense that we don’t always necessarily remember who painted which part after the piece is finished.<\/p>\n

The two artists began working together about a year ago. Nowadays, they also share a studio.<\/p>\n

\u2013 In 2020, just for the fun of it, we tried painting together and liked it so much that we have created more than 50 joint paintings so far. After finishing the Tampere Film Festival commissioned piece, we started experimenting with figurative art, which was also interesting, but in the end, we returned to abstract painting.<\/p>\n

The artist duo is also looking forward to some international coverage.<\/p>\n

\u2013 After Christmas, we start preparing for an exhibition in Japan next year.<\/p>\n

Both artists know Tampere Film Festival well and have visited the festival many times.<\/p>\n

\u2013 For me personally, the painting of this piece was especially wonderful and important, since I worked at the festival from 2005 to 2007, Hannula says.<\/p>\n

\u2013 Among other things, I took care of the marketing and helped organise gigs and other events. The most memorable of these was the Night of the UFOs at Pakkahuone in 2006.<\/p>\n

However, as her most cherished memory, Hannula cites her lovely colleagues from those years, who she still has a warm relationship with, even if they don\u2019t get to see each other that often.<\/p>\n

Teemu Raudaskoski\u2019s most memorable festival moment is from 2007 when he attended the screening of the Last Yoik in Saami Forests?<\/i> documentary followed by Wimme\u2019s gig.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Hopefully the festival\u2019s 2022 edition will provide the artist duo with plenty more memorable moments. Tampere Film Festival sends its love and a huge thanks to the artists for this piece brimming with the celebration of life!<\/strong><\/p>\n
