Elsi Tauriainen

Finland

Elsi explores the depths of human experience through her art, with a particular focus on feminine energy. She is fascinated by its apparent contradictions, strength and sensitivity, chaos and harmony which seamlessly converge in her work. Feminine aesthetics and emotional depth are central, reflecting her interest in the nuances of identity and expression.

For Elsi, art is more than a creative pursuit. It is a language beyond words, a way to translate emotions and perceptions into visual form. Living with autism spectrum disorder has shaped her unique perception of the world, allowing her to immerse herself in the artistic process for hours, where the outside world fades, leaving only brush and canvas. Through her work, she hopes to offer viewers a similar sense of pause, a moment to reflect, feel, and connect with the quiet, powerful essence of being.
