In her self-portraits, Sarpaniemi uses herself as a vessel for the viewer\u2019s imagination. The characters she depicts in her work are fictional but contain parts of the artist\u2019s own identity and combine reality with the imagined. The shutter release cable, often clearly visible in her<br \/>\nphotographs, serves as a symbol of the subject being in control of their own image. Emma Sarpaniemi graduated with a BA in Photography from the Royal Academy of Art the Hague KABK. Her works have been exhibited in galleries, museums and festivals throughout Europe. Her notable presentations include solo shows at Jarmuschek+Partner in Berlin and NEVVEN in Gothenburg in 2025, solo show at the Finnish Museum of Photography in 2024 and exhibiting at the photographic festival Les Rencontres d\u2019Arles in 2023.&#8217;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/emmasarpaniemi\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Follow Emma Sarpaniemi on instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Leena Nio<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_22598\" style=\"width: 1928px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22598\" class=\"wp-image-22598 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/finncult.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Leena-Nio-Sunday-2026-oil-on-canvas-200-x-175-cm-Photo-Jussi-Tiainen-HC8017.jpg\" alt=\"Painting of a close up of a basket bag or laundry basked.

Nio is interested in the possibilities of painting as a means of expression, and the changing themes and techniques that frame her works stem from this interest. The layering and framing of an image are both important elements in Nio&#8217;s paintings. The works can be tightly cropped portraits, in which attention is drawn to everyday details that initially seem irrelevant. Leena Nio graduated from the Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki. In 2014, Nio was nominated for the Ars Fennica Art Prize. Her works have been shown in numerous solo exhibitions in Finland and Sweden and in group exhibitions in various art museums in Europe and the United States.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/leena.nio\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Follow Leena Nio on instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Michael Johansson<\/h3>\n<div id=\"attachment_22586\" style=\"width: 1730px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-22586\" class=\"size-full wp-image-22586\" src=\"https:\/\/finncult.be\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Michael-Johansson-RGB-Standing-Unit-2025-mixed-media-120-x-60-cm-Photo-Michael-Johansson-scaled.jpg\" alt=\"Filing boxes, storage boxes and giant pieces of lego are stacked on top of another tightly forming a neat stack.

Johansson deals with ordinary items, but in a way far from the ordinary: objects are morphed into precisely stacked rectangular shapes, connected to a certain place, where their original purpose is transformed into catalysts of new meanings. After studies at the Art Academy in Trondheim, Norway, and Kunsthochschule Berlin Weissensee, Germany, Michael Johansson took his masters degree at Malm\u00f6 Art Academy, Sweden, 2005. Since then he has exhibited frequently both within and outside of Sweden. Johansson currently lives and works in Berlin, Germany. Some of Johansson\u2019s most important solo exhibitions include Museum Voorlinden (NL), Gothenburg Art Museum (SWE), Helsinki Contemporary (FIN), Ystads Art Museum (SWE) and Vigeland-museet (NOR).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/michaeljohansson\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Follow Micheal Johansson on instagram.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>Cover image: Leena Nio: Sunday (2026), oil on canvas, 200 x 175 cm.
