A portrait of a young woman in an interior setting. She sits casually on a sofa upholstered in a large-leaf pattern, wearing striking clothing. Her positioning in a corner and the slightly high camera angle heighten the sense of isolation already conveyed by her facial expression.
Hiltunen’s work explores the contemporary atmosphere: a worldview that is individualistic, pleasure-oriented, and one that perceives reality through images. Recurring themes in her art include the "culture of posing" fostered by social media and the performative nature of existence within the entertainment world. Her works are replete with references to the fashion industry and music video aesthetics. -
