Anu Penttinen
Anu Penttinen (b. 1974). Bringing a bold, graphic energy to modern glass art, Anu Penttinen finds her muse not in the forest, but in the rhythm of the city. Educated in both Helsinki and Canberra, she is known for her mastery of the complex "roll-up" technique and her love for vivid, pop-art colors. Whether it’s the modular Vitriini boxes for Iittala or her quirky Birds by Penttinen collection, her work transforms urban maps, architectural lines, and industrial symbols into playful, geometric glass treasures.
