I realized that I haven’t done a proper post about the working grant I have received from Koneen Säätiö / Kone Foundation.

December 2021 I was incredibly lucky and I got funding for two years of working with my artistic practice. I mostly applied with working with the Forces alias but I also applied for other artistic practices like internet and gallery based works.

Thanks to the grant board and the foundation, if they ever browse through my site! The grant really helps immensely as it gives a small respite of the constant grind of worrying how to survive and pay the rent. It really makes it possible to concentrate your on work so much more, so I’m grateful of this chance.

If you are interested reading my application, you should be able to find it from this search link:
