RGB SERIESWHILE MOST PEOPLE ARE DISILLUSIONED BY THEIR EVERYDAY LIVES, IT IS UNSURPRISING OUR NATURAL SURROUNDINGS OFTEN GO UNNOTICED. FROM FALLEN LEAVES, BROKEN BRANCHES, TO THE SOIL BENEATH OUR FEET – WHILE NEGLECTED BY MANY, THESE ELEMENTS HAVE BEEN GIVEN EXALTED STATUS BY MARKKULA WITHIN HIS RGB WORKS.

“The blades of grass are also grotesquely big, colossal even, and make us feel both lost in the world and in our own bodies. Hence the eye’s relation to form is seriously altered, but mostly with respect to the material: you realize that the space you normally see is not all divided by smooth surfaces, but a closer look reveals forms and material, a strange unity between coarseness and colour that is not normally seen but can still be felt.”
