Henriikka Kivelä is a multidisciplinary artist from Helsinki, Finland.

She believes that visual art is very much a multisensory experience. The visual stimulus is but one component, which must blend with space, sound and even smell to create a holistic narrative. Her motivation is born from the idea that visual communication is a process which creates a story inside the mind of the observer. As such, Kivelä grounds her concept of art in our shared social realities and in the separate, unique reality triggered by the observer’s own daydreaming.
