Pirkanmaa, Ylöjärvi
I am a jewellery and object designer (LAMK 2013). I design and craft, or commission the crafting of, items to my clients’ specifications; these often include wedding or engagement rings, unique jewellery, or various signs ranging from gravestone plaques to directional signs. The materials and production techniques are always selected on a project-by-project basis.
I am a vocational teacher (TAMK 2023). I can teach a wide range of craft and art subjects at secondary level or in short courses for learners of all ages and skill levels. (Topics include silver jewellery, vector graphics, enamelling, 3D modelling, image processing, etching, eco-friendly adhesives and paints, paper crafts, colour theory, design/product design, drinking horns, moulds and casting in metal/clay; ask for more details.)
I am a jewellery artist. I create jewellery art – works of art that can be worn on the human body – utilising my extensive knowledge of materials and techniques.
I am an entrepreneur; my sole trader business is Lunarctic. My products, made in small batches – jewellery, postcards, reflectors, etc. – are available from a few retailers.
