OFF PAINTINGS

Off painting is a method where the pigment of a digital photo printed on a canvas is removed with water and a brush. The act takes place in the same location where the photo was taken. The method can be used to simulate, construct, and implement the events that help identify the uniqueness of a particular place and situation.

Off-painting Variations in The Mall

In April 2020, I worked at mall of Itäkeskus Helsinki. The original idea was to ask people around the mall to participate in the off-painting process, but Covid-19 changed my plan.
