Brooch: Untitled by Tarja Tuupanen.Cachlong, silver. 2010.14,5 x 7 x 5 cm.ABOUT WHITE
. White is waiting, it is silent, quiet and calm, it is clear and comforting, and frighteningly empty. Can a blanco portrait tell more than a photo? Is there something more to look at in a white scenery than in the view from your balcony? The white cacholong fascinates me. In a natural material all the white shades you can think of. This stone has the perfect atmosphere, it is minimalistic and quiet, stagnant but not boring, quite noble even. It looks soft and gentle, but it is not the truth. When you look its whiteness long enough, you start to see some colors. I do love northern winter, when everything is covered with snow. It is silent, quiet and calm. Clear and comforting and frighteningly empty.
