"Black Classical" Trilogy

Muses with Tin Tongues is the third album in my Avantgarde Black Metal / Black Classical trilogy.

Right now I've got all the guitar tracks and I'm doing the orchestral percussion.

I'm thrilled to say the least. I never thought I would create 3 albums in 6 months by myself. I've been working like a lunatic this year (I'm also studying 5 days a week).

Vengeful Semblance Trilogy

The Avantgarde Black Metal trilogy will be finished this year. The third album needs 4 more songs.

I've been possessed by this surprisingly potent project. I wasn't even going to make the first album but these songs wanted to come out.

Art questions October 2019

Q: Why do YOU want to be a visual artist?

A: I've been looking for strong images my whole life. I've developed relationships with them and that is the real power.

There are millions of images everywhere. You have to create something that stands out. No one is going to care about your works if the visual impact is nonexistent.

Q: Are you doing any kind of research?

A: Similarly to a lot of the things I do, my research is based on curiosity. Most of the time I'm all over the place and that's what I prefer. I don't want to be an expert.

If you do research based on curiosity, people will make fun of you. They always ask why. Why are you looking up this thing? Why are you reading this book? I don't know. I don't know the outcome.

Ask yourself: am I being joyful?

Q: Do you ever feel like you're running out of ideas?

A: No. There is no ultimate idea, no ultimate sigh of relief or satisfaction.

Q: What museums would you recommend?

A: Ateneum art museum in Helsinki. Ainola, home of Finnish composer Jean Sibelius (1865–1957).
