The first large-scale solo exhibition by knitting artist Juha Vehmaanperä, Craft Punk, at the Gallery of the Architecture & Design Museum.

Juha Vehmaanperä is a knitting artist whose work focuses on slow fashion, queer theory and craft-based knowledge. 

His projects combine traditional handcraft techniques with contemporary approaches and technologies. Vehmaanperä’s practice is characterised by community-oriented working methods, the promotion of DIY culture and the renewal of craft traditions.

Presented at the Architecture & Design Museum, Craft Punk is Vehmaanperä’s first major solo exhibition. It brings together key works from recent years, material experiments, insights into the artist’s working process and participatory, community-based artworks.
