”More than ever we yearn for meaningful bonds, true intimacy and being connected to something bigger than ourselves …In the end, we’re all bound together by the desire for love and belonging.”
Niina Kratz (b.1987 in Jyväskylä) is a Finnish contemporary artist internationally recognized for her unique boundary-pushing fabric tying paintings.
Shaped by the years of extensive work with different techniques and fields of art & design, she seeks inspiration from the human psyche, nature and architecture. Exploring tension, movement and bold textures are in the core of her practice. The intense physical and emotional labour involved in the creation of each intertwining piece is palpable when you are in their presence. The modern minimalistic colorscape, sculptural shapes and the experimental touch of her work provide almost futuristic aura of Scandinavian simplicity and sophistication.
Utilizing the mastery of material and shape she creates exquisite art pieces for every collector to desire and invites you to find the light through the darkness.
She’s currently living and working in Tampere, Finland.
