Bedtime Stories by Mia Maljojoki

Artist list

Mia Maljojoki

How do we react in situations of crisis? How do you keep your balance in a shaky reality of ups and downs, everyday stress and global problems? What happens to secularisation?

Tongues and spoons are objects of giving and receiving. They provide a sense of understanding, both inside ourselves and in between others around us. In Mia Maljojoki’s recent jewellery collection "Amazonia" her wearable sculptures gives protection and power but also a moment of quiet peace – the exhibition at Four offers a resting place.

Mia Maljojoki is born and raised in Finland but since many years she lives and work in Munich. Her work provides a direct and spontaneous expression. At first glance they may even seem random, but the composition is balanced and carefully planned. Well-directed but unpredictable processes are refined with intuition and long artistic experience. Maljojoki combines strong colors and shapes with an elegance that creates harmony in a bold chaos.
