"I´m a visual artist from Helsinki working in the field of jewelry and objects. A lot of my work focuses on themes such as memories, remembering and the fickle essence of existence. My works are effected by the thoughts of shape shifting, change and disappearing. I like to use familiar shapes and forms, for me they symboloize the fragile concept that is human life."
