Ville Savimma creates psychedelic, bubbling worlds with whimsical characters and confectionery colors. His dreamy and playful fusion of people, animals and nature show them tinkering with musical instruments and enjoying life’s little pleasures. His quirky personality shows through with funny, bittersweet titles like Traveling without love affair and our favorite, When doves don’t cry (from a Prince song). The oasis of his surreal, candy wonderland puts us in touch with the blithe and carefree parts of ourselves.
