Thank you for visiting my page and sharing a journey with me. My name is Krista Marleena and I am an artist from Finland. For me, art and creativity is a connection with the invisible, the other worlds, the spirit of animals and the archetypes, mysticism and overflowing love. I see my work with clay as a way to bridge the worlds while also at the same time staying deeply rooted in the earth. Communication with the intangible and with the unknown is rich and full of wonder and also requires trust in the wisdom of the creative life.
My journey with clay began in 2008 after a long period of darkness and feeling lost in myself, in my life, and in this world. Creativity helped me to embrace the darkness and the light and to find a new way to relate to life. Over time, connection with clay and my own creative soul became the door of healing for me, and helped me to find the potential and the wholeness that was already within me.
For me, creation always comes out of the unknown, from a place of pure potential, where everything is waiting to be discovered and brought to the world. It is from this fertile space that my art emerges, where I am able to connect with and be guided by soul and spirit. My relationship with art and creativity is magical, earthy, deep, and mysterious. It is never about perfection or “getting it right,” but about the sweet, untamed, innocent, alive perfect imperfection of the creative process.
It is a challenging path, to be sure, but endlessly rewarding, filled with discovery, opening, and love beyond worlds.
For me it is Home.
You can see my work in Gallery and available pieces here.
