Irina Laaja (b. 1989 in Vasa) mainly work with textile and mixed media sculpture but also photo,video and performance.

Irinas practice is both conceptual and confessional with a strong focus on the process,the body and the experiences that stem from it. Material selection plays a big role; from an environmental aspect but also from an attraction to the limitations and challenges of working with recycled materials, and she’s interested in the emotional and intellectual history of objects.
