In autumn 2022, the Ratamo printmaking studio launched an international collaborative art project based on "The Great Tower of Babel" (1563) by Pieter Bruegel the Elder. Together with colleagues from Estudio Fabiola Gil (specialized on Mokuhanga/wood printing) I participated in the project. In August 2024 it was exposed at Galleri Valdal in...
