CAMILA MIHKELSOO
Camilla Mihkelsoo is a visual artist who lives and works in Sicily, Italy. She graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts Helsinki in 2020 and from the Free Art School in Helsinki in 2014. In her figurative oil paintings, she places the human being in the centre, in the subtle ambivalence that is characteristic to her figures. Drawing inspiration from found imagery and films, she portrays people, humanity and related themes. In her recent works figures are displayed in monochrome spaces that seem like staged. The characters are looking past or straight at the viewer, waiting for something to happen, somewhere in-between presence and absence.
Mihkelsoo has held various solo and group exhibitions in Finland, for example, at Galleria Ama, Galleria Huuto, Tm-galleria and Galerie Anhava in Helsinki. Her last exhibition was at Galleria Snow in Berlin. Mihkelsoo’s works are represented in various collections in Finland like Rovaniemi Art Museum/Wihuri Foundation’s art collection, Saastamoinen Foundation’s art collection, Hämeenlinna Art Museum and Finnish State Art Collection.
