Inka Mellais

About the Artist

In her practice, Inka Mellais (b. 1987, Helsinki) reflects her personal perception about humanity on philosophical and theoretical texts. Mellais does not only study these texts, but also intensively includes them in her working process and thinking. By doing that, she lets the conceptual and personal blend on the level of painting and as a performative part of the work. Mellais saves her experience from the dialogue between external perception and her own perception by drawing, writing and photographing. These saved experiences she uses as references for her paintings.
