Background

She has created textile designs for companies such as Marimekko, Nanso, Lapuan Kankurit and Samuji, among others. Typical of her designs are repetition and rhythm, born along with the creative working process and drawing by hand.
The art prints were originally created when she was working on her Master Thesis, in which she concentrated on the creative process and sketching. She wanted to find new ways of expressing her ideas and visual language. Popularity of the sketches grew bigger and resulted in these art prints for people to purchase.
