Adventures – solo exhibition, Finnish Glass Museum, 7.9.-11.11.2018
The exhibition presents not only my glass art, but also test pieces, sketches and photos along the way. I aim to highlight the story of making itself and the growth of both my technical skills and artistic approach. Graal technique has been a common thread in my work, but more over being glass artist is lifelong learning and continuous experimenting.
Meet the artist -event at the museum on 4th of November 2-4pm, welcome! The museum is open Tuesday-Sunday 10am-6pm, Tehtaankatu 23, Riihimäki. More details of events and admissions on museum’s website : www.suomenlasimuseo.fi

The exhibition is the first contemporary Nordic glass exhibition in twenty years.

Artist in Residence at Finnish Cultural Institute in New York Spring 2018

I aim to fill my sketchbook with urban and novel drawings that are inspired by the whole different visual milieu with its buildings, people and culture.
