Born 1981, Tuusula, Finland
Currently lives and works in the Helsinki Metropolitan
Area, Finland
Jonna Luostari is a visual artist and film professional from the Helsinki metropolitan area. In her work, Luostari explores the intersection of urban and nature; encounters and clashes. She combines traditional and digital techniques in a versatile manner.
In Luostari's creations, the color palettes reflect childhood in the 1980s and 1990s. She is constantly searching for new forms of expression, such as XR technologies (extended reality).
In addition to visual and media art, Luostari creates illustrations and graphics for films. This is a natural extension of her over 20 years of work experience in film set decoration and costume design.
