Kustaa Saksi (born 1975) is a Finnish textile designer. |
He uses a jacquard loom to create his work. |
He has been exhibiting internationally since 2004. |
His work has also appeared in several UK museums. |
With titles to his exhibitions like 'Hypnopomic' 'Call to the Wild', 'Paper Pavillion' and 'Travel as a Tool' he draws a lot of attention to some startling work. |
His work is in the collections of the Victoria & Albert museum, and several other museums in Finland, France, and in The Netherlands |
To me his designs compare well with the record sleeves of the psychedelic albums from the 1960s that I first saw in the 1980s, when I first discovered The Grateful Dead. |
