Visual art and activism

Tuula Nikulainen

Ecology is the home of my art (Ecology creek: οἶκος, "house" or "living relations").

Ecology is the learning of our home, planet, how it works, how we are gathered and connected all together.

Working with endangered life, climate, snow, ice, voice and languages together with community. Living with woollen thoughts and felted mittens in the 110 years old school building on the island south west Finland. Encouraging people living towards sustainability for the planet and for the children -with heart and creativity.

ARTist working for the Sunny Future.

Art has the potential to awaken our feelings and consciousness about ecology and awareness what IS sustainable. The love and passion with nature, creativity together with intelligent ideas can make people call for change and take the pro-activity to protect our natural environment and climate. Change requires giving up old ways, which can be painful. Art can provide relief and help with the birth of the new values and constitutions.

Favourite:

“I’m enough of an artist to draw freely on my imagination, which I think is more important than knowledge. For knowledge is limited, whereas imagination embraces the entire world, stimulating progress, giving birth to evolution."
Albert Einstein 1929
