Collection: Raija Nokkola

Raija Nokkala

Venture to the western coast of Finland, to the quietly beautiful village of Uusikaupunki, where the everyday is transformed into the extraordinary. There resides Raija Nokkola, a master of Naive Art whose spirit is as bright and inviting as the world she paints.

Nokkola's art is a celebration of the narrative, a vision born from dreams, cartoons, and the pages of a beloved children's book. Her paintings are infused with a gentle, heart-warming humor, often featuring scenes of profound sweetness and whimsy.

A House Transformed: The Uusikaupunki Sanctuary

Raija Nokkola's ultimate canvas is not a mere stretch of linen, but her very home and a dwelling she has magically transformed into a veritable "gingerbread house" of art. Inside and out, the walls and floors are a jubilant explosion of her signature style, a living, breathing exhibition where her traditional themes leap from canvas onto the architecture itself.
