I am a visual designer based in Helsinki with a background in fine arts and art-focused teacher education. My creative work stems from the need to express things for which words are not enough. For me, drawing is a way to organize thoughts, understand the world around me, and explore internal reality. My art posters are reflections of the everyday world.My work draws from natural forms, human figures, and the subtle energy that people create between one another. I strive to find the magical essence in the ordinary and capture common emotions, fleeting moments, and small, unspoken secrets in my posters.
