Ix-xogħol ta’ Henni Alftan (m.1979, Helsinki) ġej minn impenn profond għall-pittura – il-metodi u l-istorja tagħha – u jirriżulta f’xbihat tal-ħajja kwotidjana li huma intimament familjari iżda fl-istess ħin kurjożament mhux magħrufa. Il-pitturi tagħha jirrappreżentaw xeni u oġġetti ta’ kuljum, ħafna drabi maqtugħa jew frammentati, kull waħda minnhom imwassla b’mod ekonomiku studjat. Imwielda l-Finlandja, Alftan ħadet l-edukazzjoni tagħha fl-arti minn Franza. Fl-2001 kisbet DNAP bħala studenta tal-Ecole Pilote Internationale d’Art et de Recherche de la Villa Arson, f’Nizza.
