Anna Karoliina Vainio
Anna-Karoliina Vainio lives and works in Helsinki as a visual artist working with textile and yarn art. In recent years, collections of works have arisen from her own and a loved one’s serious illness, the uncertainty of existence, and a pre-teen’s memories of Sipoo in the 21st century. Vainio often uses bright colors, nostalgia and Naive imagery in her works. Vainio’s work has been seen in several solo and group exhibitions, for example the Youth 2023 exhibition at Helsinki Art Hall, the Wäinö Aaltonen Museum, HAM and the Generation 2020 exhibition at Amos Rex.
