Kaisu Koivisto

In her works Kaisu Koivisto incorporates different media and materials such as salvaged leather and fur as well as steel. Installations, photography, drawing and video are integral aspects of her artistic practice.

Koivisto’s topics are often closely knitted with the materials she employs: waste materials produced by a society of excess. Regardless of the topic or medium of the work, an undercurrent of uncertainties tinges her works.

Intriguing, beautiful materials and images have a seductive aesthetic. It attracts the spectator, who gradually perceives other meanings – the dark side of stories – than one can see at first glance.

 

“Seel korral kujunes residentuuris viibimine eriliseks- saabusin koos koeraga!

Tegin mõned jalutuskäigud Narva linnaga tutvumiseks. Vähehaaval keskendun projektile, mida hakkan residentuuris läbi viima.

Samuti tegelen avatud töötoa väljakujundamisega. Veel tahaksin tutvuda Narva elanikega ja parendada oma vene keele tundmist.”
