Finnish artist Sini Villi creates mesmerising three-dimensional textile artworks from handmade ribbon. Each piece is patiently layered, sewn, and shaped into sculptural reliefs that, once hardened, hold their own unique form. Her visual language is rooted in her childhood landscape of Northern Ostrobothnia, where vast, silent fields and seasonal rhythms shaped her eye. The softly ploughed autumn grooves, the muted one-tone colours of winter, and the return of vibrant life each spring are all echoed in her works. Before dedicating herself fully to textile art, Villi worked widely in fashion and interior textiles after graduating with a Bachelor of Culture and Arts in 2004.
Sini Villi´s work is exhibited in galleries across Europe, including Paris, Amsterdam, Brussels, Helsinki, Tallinn, and Stockholm. Villi´s art is found in the Finnish State Art Collection, the Oulu Museum of Art Collection, Delen Private Bank art collection in Belgium and private collections worldwide.
