Matti Pietari Järvinen

Finnish artist Matti Pietari Järvinen was born into an artist family in 1984. His father served as a rector of the University of the Arts in Imatra, Finland, so Järvinen grew up surrounded by art. His childhood and youth Järvinen felt like art is mostly boring except primitive arts like African masks and American Indian totems. Järvinen started to make art by himself in 2017 and you can see primitive art influencing in his pictorial expression.  He draws inspiration from people and life around him but above all - from his emotions. Järvinen loves to use bright colors and strong contrasts on his works.
