Eija-Lisa Ahtila

Scenographer’s Mind IV

Eija-Liisa Ahtila's *Scenographer's Mind IV* presents two c-prints paired with cut-out mat board, flush-mounted on foam core and housed in a painted wood frame crafted by the artist herself. The work reflects Ahtila's ongoing interest in the construction of narrative and perception, using the layered interplay of photographic image and architectural framing to blur the boundary between representation and physical space. The deliberate, handcrafted quality of the frame and mat board reinforces the artist's engagement with the mechanics of image-making as both subject and structure.
