I´m a visual artist based in Helsinki, Finland. I studied visual arts in University of Oulu while completing my studies of Creative Arts Oriented Primary Teacher Education.
– However, the spark for my creative work was lit long before my studies.
Initially my work stemmed from the feeling that not all of the surrounding things and events had words to describe them. Still to this day drawing has remained as a way to refine ideas and to help understand the surrounding and world within.
I am a member of Kuvittajat ry, The Finnish Illustration Association.
Art posters as reflections
My drawings are a step towards a more mundane world.
I have always been interested in natural forms – flowers, figures and all the energy people create within each other. This is the base of my drawing series represented in the future pages.
In my creative process I try to find the magical entity of things surrounding us. My art posters hopefully captivate something common to us all and still tell little secrets – they captivate emotions and scents of a certain moments.
Paintings – corporeality
From my paintings you can often find human figures and the discussion of relationships between humans and the energy in them, even scents.
Through the brush the events that took place, or things that never happened, start finding their form.
In the end one can always find themselves here, in this life and among people.
Thank you for finding your way to my work.
