Information about the artist / the group

I am a visual artist working in Lappeenranta. My work revolves around everyday themes. I use fineliner and pencil on paper. In my works, I depict a moment when something has happened or something will happen. Everydayness is fascinating to me because of its ordinariness and versatility. The place and situation encountered on a daily basis become more telling in content when they are transferred to delimited paper and finally brought to the gallery. By being aware of your environment, you can notice what is interesting there or what is missing. The purpose of the drawings is to give viewers a reflection on the aesthetics and meaning of everyday life. I encourage people to look at everyday life with new eyes and experience things with curiosity instead of routine.

Program during Konstrundan

I put my works and sketches on display like an exhibition. Possibly, I will also display works outside my workshop in the corridor. I will tell you about my way of working and how my ideas are born.
