My biography
I am a Finnish
artist and painter, MarjaLeena Pohjola-Valkola.
I was born in
a little village Multia middle of Finland 4.6.1954
I studied in the
Finnish Academy of Fine Arts and graduated in 1984 and since then have been
activitely working in the field of art in Finland and abroad.
During many years I have used external things with my paintings -
chairs, tables, mittens, old wall papers so that those things and my painting have made a combination – an old furniture placed by the painting and a part of
it is on the painting. That way I have worked about 20 years Grassina
near Florence, Residence of Artists’s Association Finland, there I have been many
times. Other places are near Rome, in Casaprota and also a residence near by Bracciano, Pisciarelli.
Year 2016 I was participating to your exhibition with a painting and a
chair.
Last year I participated Arte Laguna Shanghai exhibition and also Beijing Biennale 2026.
