Kehyksetöntä

Kehyksetöntä is a Finnish term that translates to "frameless" or "without a frame." It is often used in the context of art and photography to describe a presentation where the artwork or photograph is displayed without a traditional border or frame. This style can give a modern and minimalist aesthetic, allowing the image itself to take center stage without any visual distractions.

In art, kehyksetöntä presentation might involve mounting the artwork directly onto a rigid backing material or using a specialized hanging system that creates a subtle separation from the wall. For photographs, it often means printing the image to the very edge of the paper or canvas, or using a floating mount that suspends the print within a slightly larger frame, creating a gap between the print's edge and the frame itself.

The absence of a frame can alter the perception of the artwork. It can make a piece feel more integrated with its surroundings, or conversely, it can emphasize the artwork's boundaries by having the image extend to its natural edges. This approach is popular in contemporary galleries and homes seeking a clean, uncluttered look. The choice between framed and kehyksetöntä presentation often depends on the desired mood, the style of the artwork, and the overall interior design of the space.
