In her own words:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I am P\u00e4ivi Vaarula, a Finnish textile artist. I am working in Gilf\u00e9lagi\u00f0 artist residency in April 2023. I have been doing textile art for 40 years and I have a Master of Arts degree. I translate life into the language of textiles. My goal as an artist is to tell stories and explore the life of a woman. I reflect the emotions, feelings, ideas and opinions into my art. I shift into a new concept quite rapidly and follow my instincts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This is my fifth residency trip to Iceland. I lived in Iceland 2017-2019 and taught vocational subjects in Textiles at Hallormssta\u00f0ask\u00f3li. Returning to Iceland is always a great pleasure.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

During my artist residency I have been researching the emotions which stay under the skin. First pieces were pushing the unpleasant feelings into the surface. But one by one they became more and more positive. I was shaping fish leather and letting the material speak to me. With the idea I had in mind, the forms developed in my hands.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Together with my friend, Ragnhei\u00f0ur Bj\u00f6rk \u00fe\u00f3rsd\u00f3ttir, we are giving the exhibition “Teksti”, at Mj\u00f3lkurb\u00fa\u00f0in Gallery from 14 to 23 April 2023. Besides that, I will have a solo exhibition \u201cUndir H\u00fa\u00f0hinni\u201d, Under the skin, in Deiglan Gallery, 22nd<\/sup> and 23rd of April at 14-17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

.Deiglan Gallery’s works consist of fish skins that I have shaped. I explore feelings and events in my life that have remained under the skin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My exhibition \u201cUndir H\u00fa\u00f0hinni\u201d, Under the skin, will be in Deiglan Gallery, 22nd<\/sup> and 23rd of April at 14-17.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
