Reijo Hukkanen's sculptures are almost the opposite of contemplation, they are anti-aesthetic, indeed, put bluntly, many of them are down right ugly. Hideous monster that attack without mercy. In their own way, these sculptures are also the opposite of the image of northern art that draws its inspiration from nature. Hukkanen's sculptures seem to be about people - they are like some kind of three-dimensional psychic states, chaotic and violent. Squalid and repellent, but also playful and humorous.
