About this work

This image shows a pile of crumpled paper and painted wooden sticks. The sticks are bright colors—red, blue, and green—with some paint splatters. Underneath, a red plastic bowl is half-buried, and the whole mess is on top of a newspaper with Finnish text. The sticks look like they’ve been dipped in paint, maybe for a quick, messy project. The newspaper has headlines about work and unemployment, which might hint at why this was made. If you’re curious about the artist who drew this, look up Koivisto, Toivo.
