Finnish multi-disciplinary artist Jaakko Pallasvuo's Retreat brings a postmodern knowingness to his take on the dystopian genre as he explores the clashing ideologies and emotions of a love triangle set at the twilight of the human race. An expressive, sardonic rendering of love, fear, and ennui in the face of oblivion, Retreat takes well-worn narrative tropes in refreshing new directions.

Jaakko Pallsvuo is an artist both inspired by and heavily engaged in Internet culture as a source of material, a subject unto itself, and a space to realize his work, exploring the relationships between identity and virtual representation.
