Taiteilija, designeri, käsityöläinen ja muusikko (TaM)
As an artist, I see myself as an explorer, often finding the most fascinating inspirations surprisingly close to home. As a designer, I craft prototypes, some of which eventually evolve into products that I hand-make myself. And when I need a moment away from the visual world, I pick up my guitar and let the music ground me.
"When Katri takes an object in her hand, she sees something completely different from what it is."

Literature
Using old books as recycled material is, for me, a symbol of hope. At the same time, I cannot ignore the alternative, more somber fate of these books—ending up in a landfill or as energy waste—which makes their reuse all the more meaningful. Working with old books is challenging, but it also adds a rich, multi-layered depth to the themes of my creations.

Katri O Music
Katri O is a one-woman band. The songs are built layer by layer via a looping pedal, with the guitar acting as bass, rhythm and accompaniment, and the sung melodies turning into a chorus. Everything happens organically live and the result is a unique work created in the moment.
The musical style is by turns obscure and energetic, singer-songwriter music from Hyvinkää, tinged with northern exoticism.
Katri O Music
Katri O is a one-woman band, crafting her songs layer by layer with a looper pedal. The guitar becomes bass, rhythm, and accompaniment, while her sung melodies evolve into a full choir. Everything is performed live and organically, resulting in a unique creation made for the moment. Her music shifts between shadowy and energetic, flavored with a touch of northern exoticism, offering a truly distinctive singer-songwriter experience from Hyvinkää.
