Giant Cows of Miina Äkkijyrkkä

Miina Äkkijyrkkä is a painter, a sculptor and she is also a protector of Finncattle, the native Finnish dairy breed. Besides contributing to Marimekko she recycles large metal pieces to create sculptures of her beloved cows. She has never followed the mainstream but has managed to combine agriculture and “high” culture, the visual arts and cattle-raising, or performance art and the cherishing of traditions.
