Information about the artist / the group

I'm Maria Junes. I'm a visual artist and coach of Non-Violent Communication. I'm greatly enthusiastic to hold my short art workshop courses. As well as coaching people to pursue art in grass root level.
Currently I'm substituting as an art teacher in Kirkkonummi's visual art school and working as and visual arts instructor at Espoo's children's culture centre Aurora.
What speaks to me in my own art at this time is the theme of peace.
So far I've had three peace themed art exhibitions"
"Children's peace", Tuomivaara, Vantaa 6/2023
"Bringer of peace", Gallery Betoni, Espoo 10/2023
"On the edge of peace", Åström's Mansion's art cottage, Tornio 4/2024

My motto is: "Art does good!"
