Satu is known for her unique interior design textiles made by hand weaving in her country and this is her debut in the US. Loop of the Loom - DUMBO is displaying three textile tapestries during the Art in DUMBO and DUMBO Open Studios events, as well as throughout the month of Earth Day. Satu's textile arts echo the subtle whisper of trees. Experience the beauty and creativity of Satu's weaving journey firsthand!

She finds her passion and inspiration in the diverse nature of Finland, especially in the forests.

 
 
 

About the artist:
Satu's story is one of unexpected discovery and determination. Initially drawn to interior design, she stumbled into the world of textiles by accident. What sets Satu's weaving apart is not just her technical skill, but also her keen eye for design and her ability to infuse each masterpiece with a unique perspective.  Her textiles blend traditional craftsmanship with modern design, creating a unique attraction that tells the story of Finnish nature, passion, and artistry beyond just fabric.
Satu's studio is located in the Eastern part of Finland, in a city called Kuopio.
