Jaakko Pernu is doing land art. His sculptures are large scale and made of organic material which are very suitable, beautiful and economic for him and his way to work. His site specific art works are usually playing with some contradictions or anti-thesis such as: light combined with large, external basic form combined with internal coincidental material, transparent lucid form combined with solid structure, irony/humour combined with fine art or intuition with refined hand work. With his art he explores the influence of human on nature – the influence of nature on humans.

Can you help. I have been trying to contact Jaakko Pernu to ask him permission to present a few of his images onto my new Artist of the Month blog However the only address i have found does not work. I've spent two hours trying all kinds of ways but no luck. I have attached my email incase you prefer to post it. I would be very grateful if you can help. Many thanks Spencer.
Daer Jaakko,
I am a British sculptor presently living and working in France. I very much admire your work since finding it on the web two years ago.
I am working on an independent project called A Year in a French Forest. Since mid 2011 I have been making temporary sculptures in three forests.
I have kept a ‘work in progress blog’ and in this I have posted up images of Artists who’s work, location or ideas I really admire. This has been under the category of ‘Artist of the Month. In it I show an image of the artist and link to their work.
However I would now like to expand this presentation of Artists and have created a special Artist of the Month blog. I would very much like to include you and images of your work. Please let me know if you are happy with this idea.
I receive no income or funding for my work at present. Your work would be shown simply because I like it.
Kind Regards Spencer Byles.
