About the Item
“Beauty Beneath the Chaos” is an original abstract expressionist painting by multidisciplinary Finnish artist Emmi Iida, whose work blends raw emotion, layered symbolism, and poetic text. Painted in bold gestures of emerald green, earthy browns, chalk whites, and fiery reds, the piece captures the tension between disorder and harmony. Scribbled phrases emerge through the composition — including “there is so much beauty underneath the chaos” — inviting the viewer to look beyond surface turbulence and discover the hidden lyricism of life.
The work reflects Emmi Iida’s distinctive practice of combining intuitive mark-making, expressive color fields, and handwritten poetry. Her canvases embody both fragility and strength, revealing the human experience through layered abstraction. This piece speaks to collectors drawn to contemporary abstract expressionism, text-based painting, and emotionally resonant art that bridges chaos and beauty.

View AllEcho In Motion, Abstract Mixed-Media Painting on Paper by Emmi Iida
Located in Lahti, FI
“Echo in Motion” is an original abstract work on paper by Finnish multidisciplinary artist Emmi Iida, known for her emotionally charged and intuitive compositions that merge gesture, texture, and flow.
This 2023 piece captures a moment of raw movement and organic tension — strokes of gray, black, and ochre interlace with fluid drips and translucent washes. The composition feels spontaneous yet deeply intentional, like a visual echo of a fleeting emotion or thought suspended in air. The exposed paper acts as negative space, giving the piece a quiet balance between chaos and stillness.
Executed with acrylics and mixed media on fine art paper, “Echo in Motion” reflects Emmi Iida’s continued exploration of energy and emotion through abstraction — a meditation in motion, ideal for collectors drawn to expressive yet minimalist works on paper.

Fire Remembered — Abstract Expressionist Painting on Cardboard by Emmi Iida
Located in Lahti, FI
“Fire Remembered” is an original 54 x 47 cm painting on cardboard by Finnish multidisciplinary artist Emmi Iida, known for her emotionally charged abstractions that merge movement, intuition, and raw texture.
The work pulses with elemental energy — vivid reds, deep umbers, and molten oranges rise from the surface like embers caught in motion. Painted in acrylics on cardboard, its composition feels both spontaneous and ceremonial, as if capturing the memory of warmth after transformation.
