For the second time during her career Virpi Räisänen has received a three year grant from TAIKE (The Art Development Center of Finland) to make possible a continuation of her artistic work. This includes several innovative projects and performances for the coming years. ” I am deeply humbled , greatful and surprised of this reward and happy to be able to continue my work in serching the new unconventional ways of expressing my artistry. Several exciting plans have now a possibility to become a reality. The unfortunate pandemia situation has given me time to think what I really would love to do and these plans I am now able to bring forward. Thak you TAIKE!”
