Twenty years asking what the human spirit is actually capable of.

"Some artists make beautiful objects. VESA makes maps of the inner world, using every tool the world makes available."

For over two decades, he has built a visual language where painting, photography, and digital technology serve a single purpose: reaching what's actually underneath. Not surface. Not decoration. Genuine inquiry into what the human spirit is capable of.

The work is intentional. It heals. Research confirms that art reduces stress hormones, transforms spaces, and creates conditions for real change. The work operates at that threshold.

Collected by founders, ministers, and cultural leaders across three continents. Not because it decorates. Because it turns spaces into portals for transformation.

  • “Vesa’s art is amongst the most integrally advanced in the history of Western abstraction – no small claim, but one backed up by the works themselves. Rather than abstraction as a fleeing from life, his works are a diving into the incarnate mystery of human being — direct celebrations of the fullness of Life.”

    — Michael Schwartz, Professor of History and Philosophy of Art, Augusta State University, March 2014

  • “Kivinen’s work had no points of reference. Unlike most local artists, Kivinen wasn’t recycling successful foreign approaches and adapting them within a local context. He wasn’t replicating a preexisting genre or playing out well-known devices. Whether for better or for worse, Kivinen is – as childish as this may sound – an original.”

    — Rory Winston, Cultural editor of the New York Resident August 2014

  • “When Finnish artist Vesa Kivinen captures your “portrait,” he doesn’t just hint at the contents of your soul—your deepest fears, desires, triumphs, and avenues of personal expression. Vesa brings them all to the surface, creating collage imagery that reveal more about his subjects than even the subjects themselves thought possible. While he is not the first to do this kind of work, he may very well be the best.”

    — DL Cade, Editor in Chief of 500px, February 2016

  • “It is a pleasure to recognize and appreciate Vesa’s work before he becomes a global star.”

    — John Anthony West, Emmy Award Winning Documentary Filmmaker / Author

  • “Vesa is credited for inventing an entirely new art form – Artevo is a combination of body painting, photography and image manipulation that allows to create works of incredible vibrancy and depth. I am a big fan of his Share series where extreme close-ups of single brushstrokes create a vortex-like effect with paints and textures melting into each other. His works are a symphony of emotions expressed through colour.”

    — Natalia Rubinstein, Artist Champion at Rise Art

  • “These are beautiful images and nobody would dispute it.”

    — Jeremy Paxman, Journalist, BBC World, 2013

  • “What occurs is a reinvention of cultural norms as we understand them. It is Postmodern in its very essence, but with an added element of natural rudimentary common in the Renaissance period, which counteracts futuristic notions. Great art usually involves the combination of beauty, imagination, and extraordinary skill, and artist Vesa Kivinen is no exception.”

    — Lead Editor Aisha Farooq on Artevo / Veena Malik Project on DesiBlitz 8/2013

  • “Beautiful and haunting.”

    — Dr. Gabor Maté, Author and columnist for Vancouver Sun, Globe and Mail, 2012

  • “Besides the great contemporary visionaries, Vesa is one of the few living artists who manages to sneak in through my visual faculties to stroke the soul I don’t even really believe I have. I was instantly smitten the first time I saw his work.”

    — Dr. Toma Susi, Physicist, Vienna 2014

  • “Your works have the sensitivity of Leonardo’s drawings and the dreamscape of Chagall.”

    — Antti Heikkilä, Doctor of Traumatology / Author

  • “Vesa is a unique artist with a high-frequency spiritual touch that is visible in all his creations, whether it’s paintings or videos, etc. There are so many layers and dimensions in his work. His art is absolutely amazing and intelligent in a divine way.”

    — Anni Sennov – Spiritual Author, September 2014
