Inka Bell (born 1981) is a Finnish visual artist working in the expanded field of printmaking, printed images, sculptural paper works, and public art.[1]
Practice
[edit]Paper plays a central role in Bell's practice: a medium for printing, it can as well be shaped into new forms. Her interests lie in visual phenomena and the limitless possibilities of constructing image surfaces. Bell, who often works in series, brings echoes of Minimalism and Concretism into her pieces. Her works explore the relationship between the two- and three-dimensional through material, colour, form, and repetition.[1][2]
Career
[edit]Bell's solo exhibitions include Galleria G, Helsinki (2024),[2] Forum Box, Helsinki (2023)[3], Bricks Gallery, Copenhagen (2022)[4], Porvoo Kunsthalle, Porvoo (2022)[5] and HAM Gallery, Helsinki (2020).
Bell's public artworks include Around, Pakila Elementary School and Daycare (2024), Rotation, Pakila Elementary School and Youth House (2022) in Helsinki,[6] and Kulmalla, Vermonniitty in Espoo (2019).[7]
Bell's works are included in the collections of Espoo Museum of Modern Art, European Parliament, Helsinki Art Museum, Kiasma, Jenny and Antti Wihuri Foundation and the Tamarind Archive at the University of New Mexico Art Museum.[2]
Awards
[edit]In 2024, Bell was awarded the William Thuring Prize by the Finnish Art Society.[8] In 2020 she was shortlisted for the world’s leading award for graphic art, the Queen Sonja Print Award.[9]
