Heini Mika is a Finnish artist living and working in New York City. Heini practically began making art when she was born and she sold her first ceramic sculpture at her neighborhood’s art fair at 6 years old. Since then Heini has acquired two fine art degrees from Finland and the United Kingdom and her paintings have been exhibited on four continents, most notably in NYC, the United Kingdom, the UAE, and Indonesia. Heini’s contemporary paintings serve the viewer with a palette of vibrant colors and dynamic shapes while she gives you her unique perspective on women, fairytales, and history. They have been an important source of inspiration for Heini throughout her career as an artist and this can be observed in her rich and intriguing original artworks.
Heini is also the Co-Founder and chief curator of HMVC Gallery New York, an online art gallery that provides artists a space to exhibit and sell their work. With her own gallery, Heini aims to create a community where artists from all walks of life are welcomed and where they can receive public acknowledgment and encouragement on their artistic journey.
