Risto Suomi, a.k.a. 'The Blue Painter' is a well-established Finnish painter who is known for his colourful modern-day depictions of Kalevala myths and symbolism. His paintings awake a sense of longing for the past, a memory that struggles between the real and unreal. While strolling through Paris, his reality and the world of his paintings merge into a painting in motion.
