Kasper Muttonen
THE ARTIST’S HOUSE – THE LANDSCAPE PAINTER’S HOUSE

20–30 August 2026
Venetsia Peninsula, Lapinlahti

Opening on the Night of the Arts – 20 August 2026, 7:00pm–9:00pm

Warm Welcome!

The Artist’s House by Kasper Muttonen is a multi-year art project in which the artist explores what his own artist’s house could be.

Through this project, Muttonen investigates how an artist might also take on the role of an architect, as was often the case throughout history when the professions of artist and architect were not as clearly separated as they are today. The project asks what kind of logic, needs and artistic vision would shape the forms and functions of a house designed by an artist for themselves.

The project unfolds as a series of exhibitions in which different models of the Artist’s House gradually increase in scale. The current exhibition presents The Landscape Painter’s House, situated as part of the urban seascape on the seaside cliffs beside the Venetsia House in Lapinlahti.

The project is supported by a three-year grant from the Finnish Cultural Foundation.
