Charles Sandison

Charles Sandison makes poems in light

The Scottish-born Charles Sandison represents a growing generation of artists in Finland, who have a background in immigration, adaptation to a new home country and language, and an interest in new media, computers and the projected image.

His works are poems in light, ornaments of light, which have strong ties with words and their meanings, which place the written word alongside the visual, and hence bring in a different social dimension.
