Päivänsäde Ja Menninkäinen
sävel ja sanat : Reino Helismaa, 1949 Aurinko kun päätti retken, siskoistaan jäi jälkeen hetken päivänsäde viimeinen. Hämärä jo maille hiipi. Päivänsäde kultasiipi juuri aikoi lentää eestä sen, kun menninkäisen pienen näki vastaan tulevan, se juuri oli noussut luolastaan. Kas, menninkäinen ennen päivänlaskua ei voi milloinkaan elää päällä maan. Katselivat toisiansa - menninkäinen rinnassansa tunsi kummaa leiskuntaa. Sanoi : " Poltat silmiäni, mutten ole eläissäni nähnyt mitään yhtä ihanaa ! Ei haittaa vaikka loisteesi mun sokeaksi saa - on pimeässä helppo taivaltaa. Jää luokseni, niin kotiluolaan näytän sulle tien - ja sinut armaakseni vien ! " Säde vastas : " Peikko kulta, pimeys vie hengen multa, enkä toivo kuolemaa. Pois mun täytyy heti mennä, ellen kohta valoon lennä, niin en hetkeäkään elää saa. " Niin lähti kaunis päivänsäde, mutta vieläkin, kun menninkäinen yksin tallustaa, hän miettii, miksi toinen täällä valon lapsi on, ja toinen yötä rakastaa. |

series of paintings and other works , 2005 - 2019
Series is based on a famous Finnish song by Reino Helismaa, called
" Päivänsäde Ja Menninkäinen " ( Sunray and Gnome ) about a gnome dazzled by the beauty of a lingering last ray of daylight. Tiina Hölli worked slowly on this series 2005 - 2019, but was not displaying any works before August 2015 (except # 129 in net and its small variations in Helsinki 2005). 2015 painting 1 became the homepage image, also in Kuvataiteilijamatrikkeli, and painting 2 in Art Rental, from where juried into an exhibition. Then in TAIKO. |
Series contains mainly coloristic paintings as color studies with acrylic about this same subject matter, but also several pencil drawings, and a few works with other mediums.
New pieces and sketches were intended to be added gradually on this page as Hölli returned to the subject of Light & Dark in Her Romantic Love Life. The continuing depended on The Love Concept of The Lover. |
... so up and away went the beautiful ray ...

Tiina Hölli's Love Concept :
" Love The One you are with, so better first make sure you are with the ones you Love. Also in my case, that would be me - inevitably where ever I go, there I am, with me, and I love it. Always always love yourself first. Take loving care of your Self and then you will have plenty to give to others. Otherwise the concept to love the ones you are with does not function in practice. As there'd all the time be with you someone you don't love, but that you are still constantly stuck with, pääsemättömissä ? This boundaryless status being the basic problem - it is orchestrated by traumatizing each other from the second we are conceived - and even earlier to the 4th generation, as epigenetics has proven. This ongoing trauma is shown in practice all over the world. Just look around. Thus, why on Earth should I leave such an essential aspect of My Own Life as is My Love, to some random changing Lovers each valid for an unpredictable moment at the time, and the changing Love Concepts of these bypassing Lovers ? - or in general, why on Earth should I leave a matter of such importance and magnitude in one's human Life dependent on anybody else's Love Concepts than my own ? Of course I am to decide all about this myself, and myself only. So consequently, My Lover's Concept of Love is to be similar to mine, to match My Love Concept. This is Reciprocity in its highest, purest form. Love Thyself first; appreciate, love and respect the only one you are always with. This is why it is not my, or anybody's job to adapt each own unique "My Love Concept"-s according to any others' Love Concepts. If I come across a mismatching Love Concept, that is not Love at all."

In March 2019 I made The Desicion to complete this series of works and close its archives. I realized the need to do this closure while I was pondering which works to take to Cable Factory Sales Event this year.
2019-02-17 [ ascension symptoms pt 2 LOL 19022019 ] 2019-03-08 [ Cable Factory 2019 Delivered ] 2019-03-10 A I R B O R N E [ ... tunsi kummaa leiskuntaa - Done with it ] I realized that I am the only one who appreciates my works by recognizing the history they convey. So they are now Archived. |
On the left by the gallery window are several smaller versions of the subject matter in painting # 129, and inside the gallery is a compilation from series " 4 x 28 = 107 " size 100 x 400 cm, size of a single work 24 x 24 cm. Photo from Tiina Hölli's solo exhibition " 20.12.2012 " in Galleria Johan S. Helsinki Finland in November 2005. Photo Juha Kärkkäinen 2005.
This was in the beginning of series " ... tunsi kummaa leiskuntaa ". The End of this series came on the Saturday night 2019-03-09 changing to Sunday 2019-03-10. I suddenly understood the meaning of the photo I had taken 2019-02-11 12:46, where DONE WITH IT stands on the floor in between the two similar sized 61 x 61 cm main pink paintings of this series. In front of these 3 paintings are the piles of my archives papers of 2018. All these elements fit together and told me the solution. The final piece in the puzzle was DONE WITH IT, 2019. I had multiple issues with its photographing last year during my 2018 diary project drawing / day 8118 - 81118 piirros / pv https://tiinaholli.weebly.com/drawing-day-8118-81118-piirros-pv which led me to a good path that I am on now. |
