Oma valokuva
I am a contemporary artist based in Espoo Finland. I do installation art that contains bits and pieces of ready made objects, ceramic art, photographic art, sound and writings. Most of all my art contains thinking. The artistic process is long and sometimes very slow. There is a lot of thinking in between. My further professional interests are research in ceramic art, curatorial assignments, producing exhibitions, coordinating art events, art education, artist in residence and professional networking. See attached CV 2009/11 for further information about my professional activities. My earlier art work can be seen on my beautiful homepage made by my dear friend Bodhi Sahaj http://www.piabackstrom.com. I enjoy living and working in three languages English Swedish and Finnish. Feel free to contact me by e-mail piabackstrom@gmail.com
