Kustaa Saksi

In Saksi's tapestries, the interface between the virtual (digital) and the material is mixed. The tapestries are woven with natural materials and synthetic ingredients, such as mohair, wool, cotton, silk, viscose, rubber, copper, and polyester fibers. The materials create a rich and vivacious surface and texture. The artist has exhibited previously in several museums, including the Victoria & Albert Museum, Cooper Hewitt Museum, San José Museum of Art, TextielMuseum, Museo Poldi Pezzoli, Kunsthall Stavanger, and Helsinki Art Hall. In addition, Saksi's works are in the Victoria & Albert Museum collection, The National Museum of Finland, TextielMuseum, and the Royal Academy of Arts.
