Elisa Alaluusua is a visual artist working with video and drawing.
She has returned home to rural Lapland after working for two decades as an artist in London and credits these distinct life experiences as a continuing inspiration. She describes her artistic practice as drawing an invisible line between her two homes: the reindeer farm in the village of Luusua near the Arctic Circle in Finland and London. Alaluusua has been exhibiting internationally since the 1990s and has curated several international events. She was awarded the prestigious first prize at Trinity Buoy Wharf Drawing Prize 2022 with her video drawing and received the second prize in Jerwood Drawing Prize 2015.
