Sofia Mäkiniemi

Stockholm, Sweden

Sofia Mäkiniemi is a multifaceted Swedish artist currently based in Stockholm, Sweden. With a diverse background that spans music, art history, and curation, Mäkiniemi’s artistic journey is a testament to the richness that interdisciplinary exploration can bring to the creative process.

Mäkiniemi is immersed in an exploration of autobiographical art, with a particular emphasis on themes of grief and trauma, but also mental health and neurodivergency.

This introspective journey is carried out through different kinds of photography and filmed documentation. Through her camera lens, she opens a dialogue about the shared human experiences of pain, loss, and resilience. The raw honesty embedded in her creations creates a bridge between artist and audience, fostering a connection that transcends the confines of the gallery space.

Through the usage of humour and constatly challenging what is acceptable to show Mäkiniemi likes to make the audience feel a little uncomfortable. By baring intimate situation and then exposing the viewer to this she wants them to reflect over their own imperfections and what their perception of the everyday is.
