Sini Majuri in The New York Times

Sini Majuri's glass made it to the front page of The New York Times! Read the article Forging Art From Molten Glass by the wonderful Penelope Colston, with images by Vesa Laitinen. Majuri's art blends modern technology with traditional glassblowing techniques. Her workshop is located in the historic UNESCO World Heritage site of Suomenlinna.

Majuri specializes in multidisciplinary collaboration. Each person brings their own journey and expertise, as people from diverse fields create together. This way of working is anything but a given. Majuri is actively working to elevate glass as Finland's national material. The article about Majuri's work also featured statements from esteemed Berengo Studio owner Adriano Berengo and Majuri's design colleague Lincoln Kayiwa, further highlighting the significance and impact of her innovative approach to glass art.

The New York Times feature is Sini Majuri's childhood dream come true. Majuri, hailing from the rural town of Suonenjoki, overcame the challenges of learning English in a small town where it wasn't the easiest task. Her childhood dream of reading the New York Times in English marked the beginning of a journey that led her to the very pages of the renowned publication.

Majuri expresses her love and gratitude, acknowledging the invaluable support of her closest colleagues and friends. Marja Hepo-aho, the glass art sorceress, played a pivotal role, along with the entire team behind the Roboballet project, including dancer-choreographer Mira Ollila, Heidi Lehtoranta, Petri Pulkkinen, Janne Jääskö, Craneworks, and Aalto University's Joni Pajarinen and his research team. A heartfelt nod also goes to Berengo Studio for opening its doors to the Infinity Vessel project, providing a space where teams creative visions could flourish. The journey wouldn't be complete without acknowledging the pivotal roles played by Hytti Glass Studio and the Suomenlinna community, both integral parts of Majuri's artistic family. These collaborators have consistently provided support, inspiration, and a nurturing environment for her groundbreaking work. 

Gallery G12's Anni Koskinen, where she held her first exhibition in Finland, as well as to Keskusgalleria in Tampere for warmly showcasing her sculptures. Gratitude was also extended to Momono and Taiko Galleries. Special mentions went to Suonenjoki City and her family for unwavering support throughout her life's journey. The realization of Majuri's childhood dream is not just a personal triumph but a collaborative spirit!
