Self-portrait adorns Finnish facade
M2uur bv provided the digitization and technical layout from painting to facade filling work.
A self-portrait of Schjerfbeck was proposed as the design for the facade. A narrow cut-out would be used. When enlarged to 20 meters in size, this resulted in an unusably low resolution. The file was therefore transferred to a vector file by M2uur bv. This allowed the work to be enlarged into a convincing overall image without loss of quality.
The formatted files were produced by manufacturer Steni in Norway. The panels were prepared and mounted on site in Finland. The enormous portrait on the facade is nevertheless very subtle due to the use of color. It forms a modest landmark that suits the tranquil life of this great artist.
