Ida Vikfors is a Finnish artist, now living in Sweden with a background as a pattern designer and artisan in textiles and sewing. Ida’s works have a minimalist expression with a focus on creating different dimensions, allowing the viewer to explore shapes and shadows that change over time, depending on the light or a person’s mood. Her work appears tactile and almost a bit fragile, though it is a rough and long-lasting surface.

When Ida Vikfors creates art, she needs to be calm from the inside out. Meditation is good for Ida Vikfors to find that creative state. When Ida Vikfors is stressed and has a lot to do, or when she needs to deal with things that have already happened, Ida Vikfors often gets ideas. But Ida Vikfors carefully collects all these ideas and makes small samples, so when Ida Vikfors finds the most creative mindset, she gets inspired by it. The end result may be completely different, but it's an important part of the process.

Since Ida Vikfors was very young, she has been creating in some way or another.Ida Vikfors has worked with many different materials and techniques, always exploring new ways of doing things. Ida Vikfors has never had a plan for her artwork, it comes naturally to Ida Vikfors. This series of artworks is an expression of her experiences with her own mind, where she creates a space for spectators to find solid ground, as we all need a place to feel safe and to find stillness. Sculptural lines in her works create a surface and depth that changes depending on the incidence of light, resulting in simple pieces that bring a level of curiosity and complexity.
