SERVING SCULPTURE - RENEWAL OF FINNISH CRAFT & DESIGN
’Serving Sculpture - Renewal of Finnish Craft and Design’ exhibition brings together works by 10 emerging Finnish designers. The designers have explored the thesis "form follows fun". The exhibition highlights the change in form language, playfulness and sculpturality that has taken over the Finnish design scene.The exhibition takes place at the gallery of Finnish Institute in Stockholm, in February 2022, during the Stockholm Design Week and continues later to spring.
The exhibition is organized together by UU Market, an agency and collective of new Finnish design and art, and the Finnish Cultural Institute in Stockholm. The curation is done by the Co-Founders of UU Market, artist Milla Vaahtera and designer Hannakaisa Pekkala, who have carefully selected exciting, sculptural pieces that represent the style of a new generation of Finnish designers.

Valon Poika

Valon poika is Finnish and it means boy of the light. When I made first mobiles in 2018 I was pregnant with my first son. I found my artistic expression at the same time as becoming a mother. I found my, method of working, wonderful hotshop team in Nuutajärvi and new connection with my own mother by working with her on the metal parts. I feel that in my case these major life developments have in common increased spiritually and focus on the moment. Some how even though I have my hands full with children, artistic work is effortless and full of joy. I have been bursting with ideas, forms and color.
2020 I got pregnant with my second son. While expecting him I had a very creative energy and this sculptural light series was made. He has turned out to be a very happy and extrovert baby - valon poika.
Minä Perhonen has most of my first mobiles and also sculptural lights. There is a joy of discovery that is only visible in the first ones. Minä Perhonen, Akira Minagawa and the people here have become very dear to me and I dream of seeing you soon again.
