Information about the artist / the group

Finnish-Czech visual artist living in Jyväskylä. Graduated in 2024 as Visual artist at Turku university of applied sciences. Currently working with polymer photogravure technique at Ratamo Printmaking and Photography Centre.
I started as a photographer, but at at the moment I am focused on printmaking.
Being drawn into hidden stories of staircases, airplanes, islands or trees. Thanks to polymer photogravure technique my photos have gotten a completely new dimension, nostalgic and timeless feel. I am embracing all surprises that the technique and printmaking gives. 

Program during Konstrundan

I offer the opportunity to explore the printmaking workshop and its activities, and I will showcase my polymer photogravure artworks.
