Galerie Anhava, Helsinki, Finland, 28 November – 20 December 2019
Anne Koskinen has now made a series of torsos whose main message is the acceptance of diversity and difference — like in public swimming baths, where people of all shapes, children and the elderly, men, women and others can swim about in the same water, accepted by themselves and others.

Revelation Portraits
Timo Viherkenttä's portrait revealed at The Finnish Cultural Foundation, Helsinki, Finland, 11 February 2019
The subjects of Anne Koskinen’s Revelation portraits are not subjects in any traditional sense. Instead, they are agents of will, depicted in a moment of contemplating approaching possibilities. The epiphany of the Revelation series is the secret text contained within the layers of each portrait— a particular thought or ideal notated at the time of the painting, that will eventually be revealed. In the spirit of a revelation, the paintings change over time, disclosing the hidden text to future viewers
