Taiteilijaelämää family exhibition

A lot has happened since I last wrote in here. My second school year is over, I left my place in Lahti (I'll tell more about that later) and our long planned family exhibition is now open!


The exhibition is in 3 rooms. First one is showing the graphic art made by my mother. The second room is filled with kitch/postlost items my dad has collected from all arond as souvenir (Soviet union, DDR...) and the last room contains my two exhibitions. One for the Haute Couture jewellery and the other is photos about movement. My brother has made the audio world for my and dad's exhibitions.

The exhibition is open 1.6-16.6.2012 in Laterna Magica gallery (Rauhankatu 7 Helsinki). We try to be there present as much as we can (I've been sick for the last days and missed few days :()

Here are few photos of the place. You are all more than welcome to have a visit!

Curtains in my parents house

In Espoo in my parents house there are some hand sewed curtains I would like to show to you. Some years ago we did big two sided curtains (2,75 m) between the kitchen/dining and our livingroom by using diffenet colours of raw silk, cotton and some other fabricks.. Now few weeks ago we did again with my mom new two side curtains to the tv room that used to be my room. In the tv room we also made new window curtains and recovered the footstools with old pillow covers and same fabrics used for the other stuff.
