Exploring the Multidimensional Mind: Anssi Matias, Painter, Poet, and Dreamer.
As a child, I was drawn to the world of watercolor painting, a passion that persisted sporadically until 2006. In 2014, amidst profound personal change, I embarked on a journey of self-discovery. By 2017, I found solace in the brush once more, creating art that reflects life's depth and complexity. My works invite interpretation, echoing the multidimensional reality I explore through canvas and brush. Simply put, I am an artist—I paint, and that suffices.
Who is Anssi Matias?
This is how Anssi Matias describes himself.
You know, for me, it's all about stripping away the unnecessary. I'm constantly seeking to rid myself of unnecessary attributes, attachments, and titles. My faith, if you will, it's rooted in this idea of a multidimensional world, where everything is interconnected. I believe in the power of the individual, you know? The potential we all have to shape our reality, to understand the world around us in its entirety.
When it comes to my artwork, it's like I have this analytical lens, this ability to break down and rebuild objects in a way that mirrors my own thought process. It's about creating something entirely new, something that resonates with the depths of my mind.
But it's not just about the canvas for me. No, I've devoted my life to exploring the intricacies of the human mind, to capturing its different dimensions in my art. And beyond that, I write about my reflections, my insights into life, existence, and everything in between. It's led to the publication of three books, each one a journey into the depths of my own consciousness.
